Championing wellbeing, inclusion and connection for single people, and those living solo
Core Skills for Connection
We teach people how to build more authentic, more supportive and longer-lasting friendships, and other kinds of platonic relationship (including neighbours, relatives, co-workers). The benefits of this kind of coaching include improved self-esteem, greater personal resilience, improved motivation and sense of purpose, and fewer feelings of isolation and loneliness.
We can learn a lot from people who live 'successfully solo'
When you live alone, your sense of connection and community comes from the relationships you have people outside of your home, so you have to put the work in to stay connected to others. We thought there was probably a lot we could learn from people who live successfully solo when it comes to friendship and connection - and we were right! Our Core Skills for Connection coaching, delivered 1-1, online, or in small groups, draws directly from our work with solos who have flourishing platonic relationships in all aspects of their lives, and is backed by research.

Testimonials
"This course has been absoutely life-changing!"
"Hannah is supportive, knowledgable, enthusiastic and inclusive."
"Before the course l was stuck in a rut with a very limited social life and no confidence in taking steps to make new friends or manage those relationships I already had. I was drawn to the course's unique focus on friendships and non-romantic connections, and felt amazed at how quickly we came together as a group. This course has given me space to reflect on my friendships, and the confidence to start to reclaim 'me.'"
