What people say

Marion is able to bring absolute calm and common-sense into normally sensitive discussions around mental health and suicide prevention, in a way I’ve never heard done before.

The Conversations for Life & Stronger Smarter Yarns for Life programs inspire me as a healthcare professional to provide training & apply these strategies in my everyday work and private life.

The strength based approach of the training was excellent and rich, conversations and learnings happened between all participants. Marion and Toby facilitated the sessions with skill and passion.

For anyone wishing to a learn critical life – skills that replaces fear and reluctance to reach out with a willingness and ability to engage and talk to someone vulnerable. This is the program - it will make a massive difference to change your’s as well as another’s life – in the space of 4 hours!

Knowing how to start and have these important “ conversations for life” are great skills that have helped me and now the people I train to be more confident to have early conversations with people and avoid personal crisis.
