Imagining beyond our current paradigms
Many of the paradigms we are currently living with and accepting as normal were once radical ideas. The world has changed significantly and yet many of our paradigms have not … imagining beyond where we are is an important aspect of building the “effective and accountable institutions that we need” it is also critical to ensuring social justice is at the core of any future world we collectively create.
Upcoming Training and Retreats
Easily see what training opportunities are coming up. I will be offering training monthly in the core areas of: trauma-competent practice, child safe practice, and values-based leadership. I’ll also be offering monthly retreats. This will be an invitation to visit the beautiful Dandenong Ranges to refresh your knowledge of trauma-competent practice, learn about nature-based therapeutic approaches, and spend time immersed in nature with specific focus on self-care.
