Feedback from happy customers

Lee Probert

Principal

York College

Jodie spoke to our students at our annual awards ceremony in June 2023. Jodie was able to share her personal journey in a really accessible and engaging way.

As well as sharing her personal journey, Jodie also talked about the strategies she has developed to secure mental wellness, over time. These strategies were all readily available to all of us and there was no one in the room who left without a takeout.

Students, their families and staff left feeling humbled by the authenticity of Jodie’s story. They were also inspired by the way she has leveraged what she knows and has experienced to lead on the national stage. All of this whilst running a successful law firm.

Jodie’s approach to telling her story, is insightful, authentic, advocates self-ownership and has a positive impact.

Jodie delivered a self-awareness session, which was available for all our 115,000 colleagues to attend for Mental Health Awareness week. She is friendly, approachable, knowledgeable and a great speaker.

Her session on self-awareness and expertise on mental health had a profound impact on our colleagues’ self-belief and outlook. We would recommend her to any business and would welcome her back in the future.
