I was extremely lucky to spend four days with these amazing humans!! People who change lives every day through their practice. We came together to learn about neuroscience, discuss and dissect. The learning was deep, repeated and worked through. Everyone went home with enough knowledge and notes to share this learning with their teams. That is how we change the lives of our most vulnerable!! Learn, share, practice, adjust, learn, share, practice......

In order to learn, we need to feel safe, we need our brain-body to be in a positive space. So we walked the walk during this training retreat. Four hours of down time in the afternoon to get a massage, go for a walk, just rest and reflect. The feedback around this aspect was 100% positive.

We also played "Wired for Life - the brain game". Such a great start to the retreat, a foundation for conversation and reflection throughout the next four days. The photos show you how engaged they were.

Next year, I will do it all again in Hanmer. Check out my website for details. The prices are Twin Share: $1,730; Single $1,955.

And if you are keen on purchasing the 'Wired for Life" game to play with your team, check out the link on my website for that too.

Keep being amazing all of you out there working to support anyone who finds this journey through life more difficult. Together we are stronger!!

I do believe I have the best job in the world. Sitting here at Estate Winery, relaxing after enjoying an incredible week starting in Timaru with Mid-South Island Women's Refuge & Family Safety Services, then a fantastic day with North Canterbury RTLB. Topped off with a couple of sessions in the beautiful Hanmer with Springs School. Home time soon....

This is a 40 min session about the adolescent changes. Grab a coffee or tea and check it out. Melissa has a great way of asking the right questions. What a pleasure to spend the time with her. I hope you get something out of it too.

This is the YouTube option, but you can also get School Shorts on podcast platforms
