It’s rather wet, it’s blooming chilly but no place I would rather be than watching my daughter play

Really excited to get cracking on my L5 coaching qualification; keen to see the impact on my professional practice and the coaching culture we are growing in our Trust. It’s also a buzz to be starting some formal learning for me

Drinking in the beauty of Wales to calm and restore me (with a quick cream tea too!)

Enjoying my last few days of holiday in Wales - this is utterly my happy place and I feel immediately and instantly calm being here. The weather doesn’t matter (though sun due later) it’s all about the vibe and the peace

Diving into this as part of exploring my thinking about the way we could understand and articulate the impact of learning and development of people through value creation frameworks. Fascinating so far and so much to think about.

Reply to let me know you want to be on it please. If we’re connected already I’ll try and add you if it’s in your bio and there’s a pic.

Hope it works! #HeadrestUK
