Testimonials
“
It’s not just me! These groups could be the answer to the isolation and self-doubt many of us in the profession experience. No matter which stage of your career or how ‘together’ you are, the group provides solidarity, strategies and support to help avoid the wall you didn’t know was coming. 10/10 recommend.

This is the perfect platform to explore and develop a new way of thinking and collaborating to help devise strategies to deal with stress, burnout & difficult interactions that are such a large part of our profession. It was a safe space outside of work colleagues with a wealth of personal experiences to draw from.
