Type of Artist:
Author, Inspirational Speaker, Trainer
Talks about any of my books; topics surrounding adolescence, brains and mental strength, including anxiety, resilience, sleep, exam preparation and screen use; parent talks and CPD.
Especial focus on managing anxiety and why our brains make us behave as they do. (Also note that I do staff training on the learning brain and adolescence. See my Trainer page for that.)
I now almost exclusively talk to adults audiences but I do online Q&A sessions for secondary school-aged students.
Depends on the nature of the day, but usually no more than two.
For a talk including Q&A, ideally 60-90mins. An online Q&A can be up to an hour.
Anywhere in the world. I have recently moved to live near Peterborough, in NE Northants, so accessible for pretty much anywhere, including Birmingham, Stansted and East Midlands airports, as well as London and the East Coast mainline. However, I do now prefer online talks and am trying to reduce travelling to a minimum.
Public transport. Will only use car for local travel.
