"Employees come first.
If you take care of your employees, they will take care of the clients."
the world of work has been turned on its head
Human interactions and teams have changed.
Some people have now been in new jobs for over a year and have never met any of their colleagues face to face.
As a manager and leader, you care about your team like you care about your family.
But how do you know how they're truly doing?
How do you know they aren't putting on a show on the other side of that screen?
Would your new employee be openly vulnerable without having built the trust factor and relationship with you?
In 2020, 79% of British adults commonly experienced work-related stress
And with work being the number 1 cause of stress, before finances, family and health stress,
it is now critical for businesses and leaders to put employee wellbeing at the forefront,
proactively supporting their workforce
to better manage their mental, emotional and physical health, and build resilience.

AWARE & EMPOWERED workshop
An educating, thought-provoking, and empowering workshop based on 3 pillars:
- Developing the understanding that stress and anxiety are adapted responses driven by the nervous system, helping your employees drop stress and mental health stigmas so they feel comfortable opening up and reaching out for help.
- Developing awareness of the negative long-term effects of chronic stress and anxiety on physical, mental, and emotional health so that your employees feel motivated to act proactively to protect themselves.
- Learning how to engage the nervous system to reduce stress and anxiety so your employees are empowered to take action on the spot with easy, do-it anywhere, and time-effective techniques.
Solutions To Suit Your Needs
Are you looking:
- For a way to engage your employees in proactively looking after their wellbeing?
- To empower them and motivate them to reach out and address issues now before “it’s too late”?
- To motivate them to use existing wellbeing resources within your organisation?
There are still many stigmas attached to mental health.
Beliefs like "There's something wrong with me", that it's a weakness if you're struggling to cope while everyone else around you seem to be.
There’s also the resigned "It's just part of the job" soldier-on attitude. The underlying belief that what your company provides is only for when you've reached rock bottom.
It takes a great deal of trust and courage for people to reach out when in that mindset.
I can help you shift it.

"As part of our Women In Leadership (WiL) initiatives, we invited Virginie as a Guest Speaker to talk about how to understand stress and how it impacts your body.
Virginie first wanted to understand why we wanted to tackle Stress Management in order to understand our members better. It was then she planned and organized 2 sessions with our WiL Members on how to reduce stress and build resilience.
Virginie was extremely professional, easy to talk to and understood our way of working and why we wanted to address this topic. She provided with insights on how to plan the sessions, what tools she would be using and how we could interact better with our members.
As busy professional women, often we forget about our own mental health and wellbeing, and with Virginie, we learned how to understand stress better and the impact it can have on not just the mind and but the body too. She provided necessary tools to for us to use on a daily basis and key things to remember.
It was a real pleasure having Virginie as our Guest Speaker and I would encourage anyone who is busy in their professional life (and personal) to take some time out and reach out to Virginie as I feel she has really helped with giving an insight on to manage stress levels and what we can do to relieve our body and mind. Thank you very much Virginie."
