Workshops

  • Valerie Viot

    Hi, I’m Valerie Viot, the Centre Manager for Together Against Cancer, a Leicester-based charity dedicated to empowering cancer patients and carers to take control of their own health.

    I qualified as a Wellbeing Coach in 2021 and find it incredibly rewarding to support clients during such challenging times in their lives. Helping them evolve their mindset and coping abilities is a deeply fulfilling part of my work.

    I have always been curious about health, wellness, and human nature. Going through the Wellbeing Coach training course allowed me to deepen my empathy and refine my skills to better support others.

    One of my clients, for example, struggled with family conflict and felt she had to be the rock for everyone else. Through six coaching sessions, she learned to accept that she was doing enough and couldn’t control others’ emotions or behaviour. As a result, she found peace and reduced her stress.

My goal is to empower you to lead the life you truly want.

    Through proven well-being techniques, you can benefit from:

    • Renewed energy and enthusiasm for life and work
    • Effective ways to soothe your stress response

  • Katie Tucker

    Hi, I’m Katherine, but everyone calls me Katie. I’m a Holistic Integrated Creative Arts Therapy (HICAT) Tutor, Creative Wellbeing Coach, and the founder of Devine-Creative. My mission is to help people overcome ‘dis-ease’ and feel empowered to heal themselves through creative expression.

    After experiencing stress and overwhelm in my corporate career, I discovered the transformative power of HICAT. This journey led me to become a HICAT Practitioner, Facilitator, and Master Practitioner, deepening my expertise in holistic healing. Now, I run an online college offering HICAT Practitioner Training, supporting students to understand the power of these beautifully simple but very effective, creative tools to comfort and heal.

    Through one-on-one coaching, group workshops, and immersive training, I guide individuals in using creative tools to restore balance, reduce stress, and enhance well-being. At Devine-Creative, we don’t judge—we listen, understand, and trust our intuition, creating a safe space for healing and self-discovery.

  • Laura Bamber

    Having spent 15 years in the world of big corporate / finance leading global teams, I am here to change leadership for women. Through my work, I guide women to redefine leadership, confidence, success and visibility in a way that supports them to RISE authentically and radiantly.

    I work with heart centred leaders – senior leaders in the corporate world and female founders. To help you to step into the fullest and most authentic expression of yourself and to support you to nurture the parts of you that have potentially been pushed aside – your intuition, your feminine essence, your joy, your unique gifts and your purpose.

    The outcomes I achieve with my beautiful coaching clients: clarity on your unique, authentic leadership identity; greater sense of purpose at work; more presence; deeper connections in all work / life relationships, more god damn joy; increased energy and a balanced nervous system; the ability to better manage stress; and greater confidence to become visible as a leader

  • Simon Millington

    Hi, I’m Simon. My approach to supporting people to improve their development encompasses establishing what their ‘needs’ and ‘wants’ are, so I can then design tailored learning solutions with them to maximise the impact of our collaboration.

    It is vital to align any delivery to their attitudes and beliefs first and then add value by helping them to recognise the benefits of transforming their existing knowledge and understanding to a new frame of reference.

    These connections should be driven by the person, and my role is to support and guide them through the process of change. Supporting people through their change is a privilege that I am grateful for every day.

  • Diane Brown

    Hi, I’m Diane. I qualified as a wellbeing coach in 2017 with Raw Horizons and ran my own business for 5 years. In that time, I supported clients both 1:1 and in online group programmes. I also published “The Little Book of Active Wellbeing”, which describes my philosophy on exercise for mental wellbeing, as well as providing advice on building motivation. In 2022, I went back to corporate work, I still speak at neurodiversity support groups and I continue to use my coaching skills when managing my work team.
