The Creative Shift
Creative workshops for teams, designed to boost wellbeing, prevent burnout, and unlock creative thinking
Since I was given a diary for my 11th birthday, I’ve known that reflective, creative writing can offer a unique space for finding clarity, processing ideas, and experimenting creatively. Research consistently demonstrates that this kind of writing can help people process their emotions, shift their perspectives, and build emotional resilience.
Writing is a simple but powerful tool for supporting both individual wellbeing and team connection. Our workshops help workplaces
help stressed and overwhelmed teams feel more focused and energised
boost creativity and problem-solving skills
support emotional wellbeing and creativity at work
The Creative Shift ensures teams leave a session armed with with practical creative techniques they can use beyond the sessions.
These sessions are also ideal for team away days, off-sites, or to celebrate National days, such as International Women’s Day or World Mental Health Day.
