How to Move Forward & Thrive
Moving forward after a crisis or traumatic event is a process not an event. It takes time, understanding and awareness.
When a problem, crisis, trauma or significant event has occurred, we often want to help those we care about move on quickly, all with good intentions. We use language like "don't be upset", "it'll be ok" or "at least (insert worse option here) didn't happen". But these phrases feel empty to the person receiving them. This is because no-one wants to be fixed, saved or changed. We all want space to feel how we feel, and to know that we're not wrong for feeling it. This applies equally at work. People need space to be human and to know that they won't be judged, ostracised or thought less of for having emotions and feelings in response to a significant event or change. In this video I share the 3 critical things that are key to supporting those around you (in your organisation or in your family) to move forward from a crisis in a mentally and emotionally healthy way.
