Design Thinking
How might we use this time of flux to innovate the way we live, work, learn and flourish?
How might we grow collaboration, creativity and belonging and embrace feedback, failure and imperfection?
Beginning with a deep empathy of the end user, and embracing collective imagination, insights and learnings, we can refine highly optimal solutions to the plethora of global and local challenges.
I take my human centered design thinking framework to both propel teams, educators and young people and to co-create transformative insights, solutions and strategies and drive positive social impact.
Education & Learning
How might we embed a new pedagogy for education, the call to which Covid has exposed?
How might we develop the inner drive for learning, prioritise the student teacher relationship and safeguard wellbeing now that digital and remote learning are the norm?
I create the relational spaces for innovative learning to unfold, expanding social and emotional wellbeing and expression of our young people. I work towards maturing our next generation of citizens, cultivating inclusion and the values of humanity.
"Real learning gets to the heart of what it means to be human. Through learning we extend our capacity to create, to be part of the generative process of life.” Peter Senge
Food & Health
With the spotlight on the health crisis, how can we accelerate our wellbeing and that of our family, team and community?
How might we transcend the collective or personal separation and fear surrounding Covid 19 and also nourish lifestyle, food choices and eating styles right now?
As founder of Wholefood Harmony, my work as a natural food cook and coach with individuals through to corporates expands nourishment and all facets of health. I teach virtual cookery workshops and the acclaimed online Pure Cook’s Training to integrate plant and natural food wisdom into modern living.
Parenting
How might we shape the integrity of our descendants, how can we penetrate hearts, nourish healthy bodies, impact wiring of minds and allow souls to flourish?
How can we navigate the epidemics of childhood anxiety and aggression and as caring leaders, parent our children for full emergence and individuation?
Author and practitioner of developmental psychology and respectful parenting, my work with parents and groups restores thriving children, empowers parenting instincts and facilitates the natural unfolding of human potential.
