Welcome
Hi, I'm Donna, and I facilitate creativity and cognitive leadership development to make a unique cocktail of awesomeness.
Why is that important?
I work with organisations to explore sticking points and expand possibilities through fun and thought-provoking activities.
Enabling leaders to - develop relevant leadership skills - gain clarity on tasks - support partner collaboration - develop team-building - improve the sense of personal well-being - save time and money from bad decisions
As a lifelong creative and entrepreneur, I have witnessed that understanding neuroscience and creativity helps me turn rocks into sponges and can empower and enrich anyone. Creative thinking is the key to unlocking the future world, understanding wellness, and empowering the power we can harness from ourselves in the future.
How does one facilitate that?
Through creative flow activities, we can find strategic wellness solutions. One simple example is chatting while doodling. Neuroscientific research shows the benefits of creative-based flow activities connected with reflective thinking tasks.
Whatever comes out, comes out. Creation, reflection and communication are the cornerstones of my sessions.
My job as the facilitator is to make it happen and to support everyone along the way.
"Employee engagement and wellness are finally taking center stage in the business world. For too long, they have been viewed as the responsibility of the HR department and not an integral part of business strategy. However, it is increasingly clear that unhealthy and unengaged employees are a drag on productivity, innovation, and the bottom line."

"A recent report found that almost half of UK workers are ‘running on empty,’ with burnout, mental ill health, and work-related stress now costing the economy £28 billion annually. All employees deserve an open, safe, and supportive workplace."

Create well-being.
In these person-centric sessions, we set a psychologically safe space where people can feel free and trust the process without worry of judgment or disapproval. There are no wrong answers or failures in our sessions.
More critical than thinking of yourself as creative, is a willingness to try new things.
Create insights.
In these person-centric sessions, participants take part in fun, practical, and ‘flow'- encouraging activities such as painting, drawing, collaging, etc.,
These sessions improve individual cognitive wellness and relaxation while giving people a visual voice and a new communication method. They also help break down disconnections, generate solutions to problems, and cultivate a healthier working environment.
create CONNECTion.
In this safe space, participants are given time to reflect and connect with their thoughts and emotions by viewing other people's work and ideas.
Observation is an excellent opportunity to build confidence and rapport among individuals and teams and to provide unique insight into the creator's experience and the viewer’s world.
