Workshops

These workshops are built for people who teach, lead, facilitate, or support communities. Each one blends psychology, design, and culturally informed practice to help you create spaces where people feel safe, seen, and connected.

How Humans Work

Why it matters for how we lead, teach, and engage

3 Hours

Blending psychology, design, and creative practice, this workshop unpacks how people show up to spaces, what they need to feel safe, and how our presence shapes engagement. We explore behavioural cues, safety signals, and the invisible dynamics that make or break a room — then turn these insights into practical tools you can apply immediately.

You’ll leave with:

  • A grounded understanding of how humans behave in groups

  • Clear ways to build trust, safety, and connection

  • Practical techniques to read a room and respond with confidence

  • Awareness of the subtle cues that impact engagement

  • Confidence to shift a space from hesitant to open

Designing Human Spaces

Crafting creative, connected experiences

3 Hours

Once you understand humans, you can design experiences that truly work for them. This workshop moves from theory into practice — transforming insight into rituals, layouts, pacing, and rhythms that invite energy and belonging. We play, prototype, test, and refine, because great design starts with curiosity, not perfection.

You’ll leave with:

  • Templates and prototypes to design sessions, programs, or spaces

  • Practical ways to shape layouts, pacing, and flow that support engagement

  • Simple rituals and creative structures that lift energy and belonging

  • Tools to test, refine, and iterate your ideas with confidence

  • A repeatable design process you can use for any room or experience

Understanding Wellbeing

What keeps us whole

3 Hours

Wellbeing is more than individual self-care — it’s the balance between body, mind, culture, and connection. Drawing on Pacific and Māori frameworks such as Fonofale and Te Whare Tapa Whā, alongside neuroscience, this workshop explores what sustains people and environments and how to embed that understanding into daily work.

You’ll leave with:

  • A holistic understanding of wellbeing across body, mind, culture, and connection

  • Practical ways to recognise imbalance — in yourself, teams, and environments

  • Insights from Pacific and Māori frameworks you can embed into everyday practice

  • Simple habits, cues, and tools to embed wellbeing into your daily rhythms

  • Clarity on how to create workplaces and rituals that help people stay whole over time

Custom Workshops & Program Design

Built for your real-world challenges

Sometimes you need something specific — not an off-the-shelf session. I help organisations design workshops and programs that actually work for the people they’re meant for.

If you want something tailored to your culture, your goals, and your team’s reality, we’ll build it together — grounded, practical, and human-centred.
