    Doing it wrong? - Kendra Patterson

    Have you ever struggled to do things the same way as everyone else? Even when you know your way works for you, and works well, people insist you do it "properly". You might even start to doubt yourself, and to worry that there's something fundamentally wrong with you. Join Kendra Patterson and I as we "do it wrong". We'll explore the relationship between what we do and what happens. We'll look at they way privileging one experience of the world limits us all. We'll share our own experiences of doing things right for us even when we're told we're "doing it wrong". Kendra is a writer, social scientist and podcaster. She coaches creative people who think differently to those around them.

    Driven to create? - Christopher Dines

    It seems like creative people have a vision, then single-mindedly set about making it reality. But what if not all creativity looks like this? What if sticking to a linear path can do us more harm than good? The output of the creative process can look very polished, but for many it doesn't feel that way whilst its happening. It's frustrating, contradictory and just plain uncomfortable. Though looking back, the process itself feels more important than the thing that gets created. Join Christopher Dines and me as we find out what it means to be driven to create. We'll explore the role of creativity working with ourselves and others. We'll see how making tangible things helps this process. We'll share our own experiences of trying to work with limitations rather than against them. Christopher Dines is a British author, novelist, mindfulness teacher and former house DJ. He helps people find more creativity whilst being kinder to themselves and others. He is currently writing his ninth book.

    Safe to play? - Troels Andersen-Kjaer

    We can't stop and mess about when there's important work to be done. We can only play when there won't be negative consequences. But what if play, and the active exploration of the situation, was a vital tool for effective working? What if in engaging with challenging things in this way we can find better ways of doing things? Join Troels Andersen-Kjaer and me as we find out what it means to be "safe to play". We'll explore the role of play in developing expertise. We'll look at whether play is always easy and fun. We'll share our own experiences of using playful approaches to adapt and develop. Troels is a creative educator, facilitator, and social anthropologist. He works with schools, companies, and individuals, using games for learning and discovering actionable, human-centered insights.

    Doing things the hard way? - Helen Read

    Ever been told you're doing things the hard way? Do you feel your jaw clench when you hear a sentence beginning with "why don't you just..."? We don't have to do everything from scratch, but solutions to complex life problems can never be one-size-fits-all. If you're significantly different from those around you this can be even harder. There can be unseen reasons why the "simple" solution isn't available to you. The direct approach to the problem might be denied to you all together. Join Helen Read and I as we find out what it means to do things the hard way. We'll explore why "hard" is not always the same thing to different people. We'll look at the ways "good practice" can get in the way of what really works. We'll share our own experiences of finding easier ways of doing things that work for us. Helen is a Consultant Psychiatrist and founder of ADHD Consultancy. One of the few psychiatrists with an ADHD diagnosis themselves, she takes an evidence-based, integrative approach to treatment. Helen has specific expertise in working with the Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria which so often accompanies the condition.

    You've got to have a system? - Andrew Hugill

    Without having a way to understand the world - a system - we feel lost. Other people expect us to have a system which makes sense to them, and to explain what we do based on that. But what happens when we're in a situation where we don't have a good way of understanding what's going on? And what happens when we have a different way of understanding what's going on to those around us? Join Andrew Hugill and me as we find out if "you've got to have a system". We'll explore when systems work, and when they don't. We'll look at alternative ways of organising reality. We'll share our own experiences of using different ways of understanding the world in positive ways. Andrew is a composer, musicologist and creative technologist. He is a Professor of Music, and a Professor of Creative Computing.

    You think with your brain? - Elizabeth Arifien

    Ever struggled to figure something out whilst sat still? Ever tried to learn something physical but found your brain getting in the way? We're told that the mind directs the body. That the best way to think things through is by sitting still, and the best way to learn is to remember the steps of a process and act them out. What if that's not the whole picture? Join Elizabeth Arifien and me as we find out if you really do think with your brain. We'll explore how how movement, language and words work alongside thought. We'll look at different learning modalities and the ways neurodivergent people can learn differently and successfully. We'll share our own experiences understanding the world in ways that go beyond thought. Elizabeth creates emotive dance performances, films, talks and workshops for others placing personal, societal and political issues at the forefront of conversations. She is the founder and artistic director of two social enterprises; Move Beyond Words where they amplify the voices of artists with dyslexia and Creative Dance London who facilitate transformation through creative dance sessions which have reached audiences across the globe. Elizabeth’s creative endeavours come from a place of curiosity and kindness.

    Fitting in? - Ann Skinner

    We're told that we should fit in. That it's safer that way. That we should stick with what we - and other people - know. But what if in attempting to fit in we lose sight of ourselves and our unique talents? What if the things that allow us to feel safe are different from those around us? Join me and Ann Skinner as we explore "fitting in". We'll look at how trying to fit in can result in feeling exhausted and spread too thin. We'll see how for some people, exploring at the edges can feel safer than being in the comfortable middle. We'll share our own experiences of reclaiming a connection with self through play, creativity and joy. Ann Skinner, aka Ann The Heartworker, is a Coach and Creative & the Founder of The Heartworker's Way. In her work as a Life Coach, Creative Guide and Facilitator, Ann helps you realign to your heart centre, so you may gain a greater understanding about who you are, why you are here and what it is you need to be able to live a life that is true to you.

    You've changed? - Reuben Wachs

    Ever been told in accusatory tones that "you've changed"? Had a sense that your desire to change things for the better - for yourself and others - is a personal failing? That by growing and developing it feels like you've somehow let someone down. Join me and Reuben Wachs as we explore the tension between acceptance and development, and what happens when "you've changed". We'll look at how much control we have over change and what happens when we do. We'll see how we influence the direction of change in positive ways without forcing it. We'll share our own experience attempting to engage with shame, blame and anxiety in loving, unconditional ways. Reuben is a trainee integrative counsellor, who having struggled with his own mental health, now has a passion for sharing resources and theory to create effective change for those in need.
