This week was all about one of my favorite topics, people! Weekly recap below. 🎭 𝗖𝗼𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲: My heart is still in London after another wonderful edition of the Coliving Conference.

What a joy to see our IAF España community grow, with 15 facilitators coming together in a cozy cafe in Barcelona, Spain yesterday! ✨ What I love most about these gatherings is seeing how many different spaces facilitation shows up in. To name just a few, we had Yana with her experience in technology and…

The Coliving Conference team has officially landed in London ✨ What better way to get into the coliving spirit than by staying in one?

What does it feel like to hand over something you built yourself? Nearly five years ago, Phylly Jones and I started a company running after-school drama clubs for kids in Barcelona’s international schools after graduating from The Royal Central School of Speech and Drama.

What would we be without the teachers who helped us become who we are? Today is Teachers’ Day and I would love to take a moment to recognise the people who do far more than teach a subject. A great teacher can spark curiosity, build confidence, notice potential, and create a sense of possibility. They…

I was honoured to be invited back to Denmark as an expert trainer last week by the Varde municipality to lead a few workshops on role play for 150+ teachers from across the country. The common starting point for people without any applied drama experience is often something like: “𝘋𝘳𝘢𝘮𝘢 𝘪𝘴 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘨𝘦.”  “𝘐’𝘮 𝘯𝘰𝘵…

How do we make sure everyone has a real chance to participate and be heard? I’m currently en route to Billund, Denmark, in London on transfer, to deliver a few workshops on deltagelsesmulighed, the Danish educational term for “opportunity to participate” or equality of opportunity. I’m honoured to be invited back again to work with…

Back from August, and feeling refreshed and ready for the final quarter of the year!
