Valentina organised and delivered Mental Helath First Aid training to a team of our 'Wellbeing Aides' and their feedback was 100% positive. In advance of the course Valentina was incredibly helpful in working to our timelines and aranging the logistics accordingly . This was the first time we have participated in an online version of this course and the extra touches that Valentina arranged made this a fantastic experience for our team. The course was informative, professional and effective. I would have no hesitation in recommending this - Thanks Valentina for all your help !

Valentina's positive energy and astuteness on Happiness, Employee Wellbeing and DISC is off the charts! I have had the pleasure of attending her Masterclass as well as participating in collaborations and interviews about workplace wellbeing with Valentina. She is engaging, authentic, humorous and expert all wrapped together. I came away from her Masterclass with a greater understanding that deep lasting happiness is multi-faceted and relies on many components that contribute to our well-being. I took lots of notes and continue to think about what I learned. Valentina makes a lasting and meaningful impact.
