Parenting for a Positive Mindset

Debra is an imperfect Mum of a daughter aged 13 and a son aged 8. She believes that as parents, we all do the best that we can for our children every day (and we occasionally get it wrong!). And that sometimes in this social media driven world, we need some face to face help, and support that is backed up by information we can actually use in our day to day lives. Debra combines nursing, research, adult learning and coaching to bring you a series of workshops with a difference. The workshops are based: • On her own practice knowledge • On what she has learned from experts in positive psychology, medicine, social work, education and leadership • And also on what she has found works!
