Last month, we held our mid-year Unwrap: Your Year in Motion, an online session designed to offer something that we often need to create space for – the chance to pause, take a breath, step out of the busyness, and gently consider:
Where am I now, after this year? And what’s shifting in me, or around me?
When we invite people to work visually or physically – using methods like mapping, drawing, or selecting images – we open up access to insights that don’t always surface in traditional discussion. This session at Arethusa College reminded me just how powerful it is to make the abstract concrete, and to bring new parts of ourselves into the room.
Sometimes all it takes is one image to start a whole new way of seeing and speaking.

Helen Zink and I are teaming up with Crackin’ LnD (Down Under), an energised community for learning and development professionals across Australia, NZ and the Pacific, to share a creative, adaptive approach to leadership, one that helps you tune into yourself, your team, and the moment.
