    Feb 14 2022

    Michelle is a firm believer that knowledge is power, and when we are taught to recognise our own God-given strengths, then we are empowered to take action each and every day to be the best version of ourselves. As an educator, she strongly advocates for education travelling far beyond the four walls of any classroom. All of her work is created to support individuals develop and sustain habits of good health and positive thinking that is life-long and sustainable. Michelle strives to have people acknowledge and understand that they themselves are the authors of their own stories that they so wonderfully create in life. 

    Michelle and Andrew discuss how the approach of positive psychology can have an impact on how young people see themselves and improve outcomes in anxiety, self esteem and depression.

    Morgan came from what appeared from the outside a good family and went to a good school. However, negative thoughts and mood plagued her days. Morgan lost hope for the future and was weighed down with hopelessness.

    Morgan discussed an explored the parenting she received. Morgan experienced inconsistent parenting that would result in conflicting messages that varied from nurturing to harsh criticism, such as I love you, but your a spoiled brat who doesn't deserve  this and that. Morgan as a result grew up with a low self esteem and felt unworthy. Morgan was trying to appease what she refers to as an erratic parent, which resulted in a self destruct  belief system that significantly impacted Morgans identity and self worth.

    Morgan shares how she has supported her own well-being and now is passionate about helping other people to find and own their own identity and purpose. Morgan is passionate about de-stigmatizing mental health and encouraging people with her honest and open sharing of her story.

    Morgan has advice for parents to support them to listen and be present for their young person  based on her life  experience. Morgan is very insightful, balanced, kind, compassionate and well articulated in her reflections and suggestions.
