Practical workshops. Tools for real life.

Judy’s workshops are warm, engaging and highly practical. Rather than simply talking about wellbeing, stress or resilience, Judy helps people experience tools they can actually use in their everyday lives.

Drawing on decades of experience, she combines stories, humour, guided exercises, visualisations and practical strategies around subjects including stress, emotional resilience, grief and loss, change, self-care and wellbeing. Sessions can be tailored for groups, organisations and events, from shorter presentations through to half-day and full-day workshops and retreats.

Supporting you through life's difficult seasons

Life happens. Sometimes it brings loss, illness, family pressures, caring responsibilities, retirement, unexpected change, emotional exhaustion, or simply the feeling that you have lost your footing.

Many women spend years supporting everyone else while quietly carrying their own worries, grief and responsibilities. If you are feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, stuck or simply tired of carrying so much, you are not alone. There are other ways forward.

“The most practical workshop I’ve ever been to. I came to the room in bad shape, stress-wise, but have gained so many practical ways to deal with these challenges – so much strength. I feel a huge weight has lifted, thank you John and Judy.”
Fay Gard, Tweed Heads South, NSW
“You will gain so much more than anticipated – pages of practical ‘can-do’ tools and strategies. More important, a seismic shift of awareness that is difficult to put into words but is profound.”
Philip Jardie, Business Manager, Slacks Creek, Queensland
“All the meditations were great, easy and quick.”
Dr Claire Ballinger, Chiropractor, Gawler, South Australia
“From someone who considers themselves not too stressed and came along to please the wife, it was a great experience. The passion and love of the presenters, and the knowledge and tools were an enlightenment. Bring on the stress… it now can be dealt with and cancelled out.”
Bruce Gard, energy assessor, Tweed Heads South, NSW
“My wife, Tracy, and I have applied the teachings from Stress to Strength in our lives. As high activity people, our ability to manage our circumstances helped us build one of Australia’s largest charities at a time of significant national stress, and to be effective in supporting tens of thousands of people and bringing hope. We couldn’t have done it so thoroughly if not for this valuable training and support.”
Charles Alder, CEO, Brisbane, Queensland
“The seminar exceeded my expectations hugely. I’ve received great knowledge about myself, and the tools needed to work on changes.”
Greg Aleckson, Business Coach, Brisbane, Australia.
“For me, Stress to Strength was like coming home. I had done a lot of personal development and had forgotten things. The tools given at the seminars are simple but extremely powerful. Got it.”
Dr Louise Callaghan, Chiropractor, Brisbane, Australia.
