What an incredible time in Tasmania! 🌿🌊
I recently ran two Foundation Courses alongside two wonderful colleagues, hosted by the talented Michelle at the Reseed Centre in Penguin. I also had the joy of facilitating a 4-hour workshop for health professionals at the Devonport Community Health Centre.
I thoroughly enjoyed meeting so many talented people and I'm honoured to have supported them with their communication challenges. Witnessing those lightbulb moments firsthand is exactly why I do what I do.
Thank you to all who came along and supported these events. 🙏
P.S. Hiking at Cradle Mountain did not disappoint! 🏔️

Ever notice how quickly conversations turn into analysis, blame, or fixing?
We often communicate from:
• Evaluations about what’s wrong
• Stories about what someone meant
• Strategies about how it “should” be solved
• Demands, even subtle ones
Sometimes we walk away feeling less connected than we intended.
Recognising the pattern matters. New skills can be learned. With practice, you can create communication habits that strengthen and enrich your relationships.
In this 4-hour introduction to Compassionate Communication in Ocean Shores, we’ll explore a different way.
We will practise how to:
• Shift from evaluation to clear observation
• Recognise what you’re feeling and what matters to you
• Move from demands to genuine requests
• Untangle stories from what’s actually happening
• Listen in a way that builds connection rather than defensiveness
There will be guided exercises and space to explore your real-life situations in a supportive group.
Small group.
Interactive.
Designed around practical tools you can use immediately.
