We’re podcasting! We’re working with City Park Radio to create a podcast series about… well… ‘health people’. Yeah, that’s right, all the people who are meant to help you look after your health. Who are they? How can they help? What do they really do? And why do they care? These short, funny and easy to understand stories will demystify ‘health speak’ and introduce you to some of the people who really want to help you to look after yourself and your health… turns out most of them are pretty cool. More information to be released soon. This project has been funded by the Healthy Tasmania Community Innovations Grants through the Tasmanian Government

A program flyer will be available soon. This project has been funded by the Healthy Tasmania Community Innovations Grants through the Tasmanian Government.

Steve Jobs once said "The most powerful person in the world is The Storyteller" yet most people and organisations have work to do if they are to step into this power. Don't worry, we’ve got you covered! We've designed a suite of workshops, keynotes and mentoring programs to help you or your organisation understand, then harness the science of storytelling.  You'll learn to build community buy-in, influence decision makers and create real and lasting change in your community and organisation.

We are spending LOTS of time in George Town right now and we couldn’t be happier. We’re working with the George Town Council and a range of partners to pull together a community-wide health and wellbeing initiative called Healthy George Town. Healthy George Town is about supporting locals to form the sorts of healthy habits that they’ll be likely to keep and will improve their overall health and wellbeing for life. This initiative gives the community access to free programs, resources and networks to best support them to be as happy and healthy as they can be. To access click here.
