Would you like to support your people to stop burnout and unleash their potential ?
These workshops will give your people the practical strategies they need
Smart, caring organisations that I've partnered with
Are your people stressed and tired?
You know that your staff are doing it tough...
And you know you need to take action. But you need a solution that is efficient and cost-effective.
Because you want to prioritise your people's wellbeing in ways that promote excellence.
You want your team to be well and work well.
And that's a big ask when so much is expected of employees at every level.
Burnout is a looming risk, and stress claims are the most costly type of workers compensation payouts.
And the effectiveness of your organisation depends on your people to be at their best - present, energised, and creating amazing experiences for your clients.
This can only happen from a place of emotional safety and wellbeing.
To give their best, your people need to be at their best.
My pathway has helped hundreds of professionals to stop burnout, successfully and sustainably.
So why are my workshops standout experiences?
Too many burnout commentators offer glib, unhelpful 'tips' like increasing self care, taking holidays or finding that mystical state called 'work-life balance'.
If it was that easy, there'd be no burnout.
The truth is that there are subtle, yet powerful barriers to developing and sustaining healthy styles of living and working.
My approach to stopping burnout is to help people compassionately address those barriers to free themselves from mindsets and habits that keep them stuck and suffering.
This isn't therapy, just a deeper examination of those blocks that invites people to move past them for greater energy, presence and career success.
Your people can do this when they can clearly see what holds them back, with a pathway for moving forward.
And you don't need to make drastic decisions or big changes to your life to get amazing results.
My approach is relaxed, conversational and very relatable. I make these experiences enjoyable as well as empowering.
And I can provide ongoing group support to your team for consolidating the learning and putting it to good use.
But I get it.

I mean, who is Toni Knight???
I trained at the Universities of Newcastle and Wollongong as a psychologist, about 100 years ago. Since then I have helped thousands of people, as a psychotherapist and trainer, to live meaningful, more satisfying lives, centred in their values.
I started teaching and supporting people to stop burnout in 2016, because business leaders reached out to me for effective, sustainable strategies.
I then developed and refined my own model to stop burnout and built a system which is evidence-based and has been highly effective for many high-achieving professionals.
It's my mission to help compassionate professionals to thrive in their important work. Goodness knows, we need them!

So what workshops do I offer for high-achieving professionals?
