Strengths coaching to help supercharge your social wellbeing.
Feeling lonely or disconnected?
​Feelings of loneliness aren't a fault or a failing. It's as natural to feel lonely occasionally as it is to feel thirsty, hungry, or cold.
Profound or prolonged loneliness can negatively affect our careers and relationships, as well as our mental, physical and emotional health. That's concerning, but here's one very comforting truth:
​​
Connection is in our DNA.​​​
In fact, humans are only capable of loneliness because we have such an incredible social capacity.
​
Each of us has our own unique combination of powerful social strengths.
Leaning in to those strengths can help us create lives that are deeply purposeful and rich in real human belonging.​​
​
Today could be the day you start building the strong social habits you need to become your best and most connected self.
​Let me guide and support you to:​
* Learn to savour both company and solitude.
* Build a pro-social home, workplace or community.
* Manage feelings associated with loss or loneliness.
* Choose healthy IRL relationships over unhelpful parasocial ones.
* Navigate the modern dating scene and create a vibrant single life.
* Enhance your communication and/or consent skills for better intimacy.
* Use your unique strengths to live each day with purpose and intentionality.
* Explore what 'a good life' really means to you, so you can set authentic goals.
* Dismantle a shame or blame-based mindset and tap into the power of possibility.
While my work focuses primarily on individuals, I can also consult with organisations to provide thought partnership or facilitate workshops and training around social wellbeing.
This work aligns most closely with Sustainable Development Goals 3, 8 and 11.
I'm a humanistic strengths coach. I work with people who want to improve their social wellbeing.
​Who might experience loneliness?
Almost anyone.
Loneliness is a subjective, negative feeling that comes up when there's a gap between the level of connection we need and the connection we have.
This could be due to the quality and/or quantity of our social connections.
​
Although it's often stigmatised, loneliness is a perfect​ly normal human emotion — one that can affect us differently at different times across our lifespan. ​​
Humans have different ways of experiencing or expressing loneliness. Because there can be a stigma around loneliness, we might try to suppress or deny it.
Loneliness might also mimic (or accompany) burnout or compulsive behaviours, making it hard to identify.
Once we've identified and acknowledged these feelings, we can begin to optimise our social wellbeing by leaning into our unique social strengths and building strong social habits.
