Thank you for being part of our leaders forum. I think its incredibly important for leaders to have resilience and know how to build and maintain it. We need to keep ourselves healthy to be there for our folk. We all have different thresholds for stress and its very helpful for our people to hear from you how to manage their stress and anxiety levels and how to safe themselves to stay strong. Thank you for your amazing workshop!

A huge thanks to Dan for preparing and running this resilience session for our team. The whole session was professionally run yet human-focused which kept us all engaged. Dan helped to work with us to make the most out of our session, including tailoring the content to focus on key areas that came out of our staff well-being survey. We all picked up some advice that will stay with us when we encounter stress not only in the workplace but also in our everyday lives and I can see us as a team referring back to this training session as a team bonding session also.

Huge Thanks Dan!

Thank you Dan for a fantastic Stress Management in the office session well timed and well needed for a team under tremendous pressure right now.

I am sure the team would agree with me that we both learned and were reminded of the physiology, the triggers and management techniques we have control of. Things to practice so not forgotten when in stressful spikes.

We also appreciate your well paced and personable presentation. Your vulnerability and bravery in sharing your personal and relatable experience. And use of technology, tricks and tools.

Thank you so much for the session on Monday, it was extremely beneficial and your calm, gentle and non judgemental approach proved essential in providing a safe space for participants to share.

I particularly enjoyed learning about how when the carbon dioxide builds up through holding your breath, your heart boosts the oxygen levels to give that energetic boost. Your suggestion to try this at 3.00pm to overcome the slump is something I will be adding to my self-care toolkit.

I also liked to hear how you expanded on the flight / fright / freeze response to include "fawning' as this wasn't a reaction that I have heard much about in relation to the reptilian brain.

I wanted to thank you for providing the three sessions across Council locations in October to help build the wellbeing of staff, especially given we are heading into the busy summer season. Thank you so much for your facilitation and sharing your passion for building individuals resilience.
