Are you carrying the weight of school experiences that have never made sense?
Do you remember being “the clever one” who was always in trouble? The child who thought differently but struggled to conform? The one who succeeded despite your education, not because of it? Did your lessons drive you wild by going at a pace that was completely wrong for you?
Or are you the parent of a child with this experience?
If school felt like a place where your authentic self, or your child’s, wasn't welcome, you're not alone. And more importantly, it wasn't your fault.
✨ What This Exploration Offers
This isn't therapy – it's a 24 hour psychoeducational journey to understand how educational system failures shaped your identity and to reclaim your authentic story.
Drawing from my lived experience as both an educational trauma survivor and a mother who lost her son to these same system failures, I offer a unique perspective on what it means when brilliant minds don't fit conventional structures.
✨ The 24-Hour Process
Pre-exploration questions to guide our conversation - I will ask you to complete these ahead of the session.
Two 2-hour live windows when I'm actively responding in real-time—these are scheduled times when you know I will be by my device, not constant availability. We will negotiate these depending on your time zone and my availability.
Asynchronous voice and text messaging throughout the full 24 hours - you can’t message too much - it is all welcome!
Educational trauma framework to understand your experience
Safe space to explore patterns without judgment
Example:
Our time runs from Sat noon to Sun noon. I will be actively online from 12.00—2.00 pm on Saturday and again from 9.00—11.00 am on Sunday.
You can send voice messages, texts, or photographs anytime. Yes, anytime!
If you wake in the night you can message me.
You can send as many messages as you choose to.
You can go out for a walk, make your lunch or put the children to bed between reading, listening & messaging.
You can write notes, journal or research to enhance your exploration as we go.
✨ This Is For You If:
You've always felt like you didn't fit educational systems
You were labelled as "difficult" or "not reaching your potential"
You're successful now but still carry confusion about your school years
You see similar patterns emerging in your own children
You want to understand your story through a lens that actually makes sense
The Transformation:
🌿 From: "There's something wrong with me" —> 🌳 To: "The system was wrong for me"
🌿 From: "My child won’t behave at school" —> 🌳 To: "The school won’t adapt to my child."
🌿 From: "I failed at school" —> 🌳 To: "School failed me"
🌿 From: "I don't understand what happened" —> 🌳 To: "I can see the patterns and make sense of my story"
“The system wasn’t broken—it was working exactly as designed, just not for minds like ours.”
🍃 Investment: £150 This is a new service in development for me so there is currently no charge!
I'm close to completing my book on how it takes a village not to lose a child. It is told through my son, Sam's, search for belonging when schools would not respond to his needs nor seek to understand his brilliant mind. This exploration draws from decades of understanding what happens when brilliant minds meet inflexible systems.
