Mental health is not a destination, it is a set of skills leaders acquire and implement into their life to be able to ride the ups and downs of the rollercoaster of life.
Life is constantly changing. We can have great days filled with success. There are periods of time when things seem to go smoothly. But, there are also days, weeks or even months when things can be tough or go wrong.
Mental health and wellbeing is not feeling happy all of the time. Being mentally fit means we have the skills to experience a range of feelings, adapt and work through whatever challenge is in front of us.
“Leaders who prioritise their mental health and wellbeing thrive.”

Dear Leader,
Thank you for taking the time to have a look at my book.
I know you are extremely busy and always working hard so the book is also available on audiobook for you to listen to when you are driving between places or are out for a walk.
I want you to know you are important, you are your best asset! My book will help you to look after your mental health and wellbeing so you can sustain the great work you do every day.
We know that leaders who don’t prioritise and plan to look after their mental health and manage their stress become run down, burnt out and can’t function as effectively. My book will help you to create a plan to look after your mental health, so you are productive and perform at your best.
I’d love to hear your thoughts about my book.
