WHAT PARTICIPANTS SAY...

  • "I wasn't sure what to expect from this workshop, so I was surprised by how much I'm taking away.  I've learned that it's not wrong to put my own needs first and that I don't need to ask permission to do so.  I've also learned to be 'authentic' to myself and others.  I really enjoyed the integration with the rest of the group and Jane handled questions in a way which met each person's needs. Jane was so easy to talk to and open up to that I felt like I'd known her quite a while!  I'd definitely be keen to meet up again as a group."
    - Fi B, Administrator, York
  • "The workshop was extremely well delivered - professionally and sympathetically to everyone's needs.  All of the exercises were good to do and not over-taxing to any individuals."
    - Christine E, Youth Worker, County Durham

  • "I really got a lot from the day and Jane's honesty allowed me to open up more.  I feel prepared and motivated to go back to work and achieve what I want to do, without fear holding me back."
    - Tracey T, Sales Executive, County Durham
  • "I've got a lot to go away with and work on, which have really offered me strength and courage.  Thank you."
    - Ann C, Voluntary Worker & Homemaker, County Durham
  • "I'd come along to the 'Feel The Fear' workshop to improve my confidence and to find strategies to be able to deal with situations more easily.  I'd also wanted to feel more confident about decisions that I make and all of these expectations had been met in this workshop.  I'm taking away a more positive outlook and the knowledge that, no matter how confident a person appears, they might not feel that way inside.  I liked listening to others in the group and how they have dealt with difficult situations themselves.  I also liked the positive feedback from others who attended the course, as well as Jane's good, constructive advice.  I'd definitely be interested in attending a follow-up day."
    - Karen W, Administrator, N Yorkshire
  • "I'd come to the 'Feel The Fear' workshop to spend time focusing on ways to overcome my worries and to look at planning the next steps for my future.  I discovered that it really is ok to value my own desires for my future and, with the help of calming techniques and strategies for overcoming stress, I feel more sure of my direction.  I particularly enjoyed the input and reflection from everyone in the group.  This also made me realise I am actually well down the line to moving on but still need reminders to keep me on track.  Jane's calm, empathetic approach was both encouraging and supportive.  I'd definitely be interested in a follow-up day!"
    - Chris G, N Yorkshire
  • "I hadn't expected such a high level of sharing/honesty when I signed up for this workshop but it was powerful. The day was a positive process and solidified what I'd learned from the book. I liked that questions were personal to the individual and that there was no feeling of being rushed. Jane was very calm and used good examples from her own personal experience, plus humour where appropriate. I enjoyed the day."
    - H.B., N Yorkshire
  • "I guess my only expectations of this workshop were to feel part of a group and feel able to be honest and feel inspired, without having to keep up a facade – so yes, my expectations were met.  I do feel more inspired and motivated as a consequence of being part of this workshop. Jane was calm and accepting and handled questions sensitively.  It was reassuring to have the impression that nothing will shock."
