The Knowing Self Presentations & Workshops
Conversations that stay with people.
The Knowing Self presentations and workshops are designed to create meaningful pause, not just insight in the moment, but understanding that continues to shape how people relate, communicate, and lead.
Grounded in emotional intelligence, psychological safety, and lived human experience, these sessions invite people to look beneath behaviour, their own and others’, and to develop language for what’s often felt but rarely named.
These offerings meet people where they are, in the reality of daily life, not at an imagined finish line.
Who this is for:
Schools
Supporting staff, empowering students, and partnering with parents through a shared understanding of what drives behaviour.
Sessions explore the beliefs, emotions, and pressures shaping how young people and adults show up at school, with practical language that supports responsibility, empathy, and repair.
Commonly delivered to:
Years 5–10 cohorts
wellbeing teams
staff professional learning
parent evenings
Organisations & Workplaces
For leaders and teams seeking emotionally intelligent cultures built on trust, clarity, and human understanding.
These sessions support workplaces to move beyond surface-level “soft skills” and into practical awareness of how emotion, perception, and nervous systems influence decision-making, communication, and leadership.
Especially valued in education, care industries, and purpose-driven environments.
Community Groups & Events
Keynotes and workshops for community groups, leadership gatherings, and mental health initiatives.
These are not high-energy, one-off talks.
They are spacious, grounded conversations that honour complexity and invite reflection, meeting people in the truth of their everyday experience.
Signature topics
All sessions are adapted to audience, age, and context.
The Iceberg Model
Understanding how fears, beliefs, and unmet needs drive behaviour and how working beneath the surface changes outcomes.
The SCARF Model
A practical framework for recognising emotional triggers in leadership, learning, and relationships.
Psychological Safety & Repair
What safety really looks like in human systems, and how repair strengthens trust after missteps.
Owning Your Story
How lived experience shapes behaviour and how awareness creates choice without blame.
Rupture and Repair in Relationships
A grounded approach to navigating disconnection and rebuilding trust at home, school, and work.
Compassionate Communication
Responding rather than reacting, staying steady in difficult moments, and guiding conversations with care.
Personal Leadership & Emotional Literacy
Supporting both young people and adults to recognise patterns, regulate emotion, and lead with integrity.
