The work in practice

A guided pause at a convention, an experience in belonging and a conversation about leaders’ well-being. Here are three gatherings that show what my work looks like in different settings.

Experiential talk at a convention

Reset de Energia

At Auren Energia’s annual convention, through Onemind, I guided a short practice to help participants pause and bring their attention back to the present during a busy day.

We took a brief moment to notice the body and breath. I invited each participant to choose one small adjustment to take into their day.

“The talk brought up important reflections in a simple, accessible way. I left with new perspectives on how to handle everyday life.”

Team-building experience

Raízes e Histórias

At Chubb Seguradora, through Onemind, I facilitated an experiential session on belonging. Participants worked with their own stories and practised listening to one another.

I guided the group in listening and sharing stories to get to know the people they work with and talk about what strengthens those relationships.

“I really liked how the theme was handled. It was approachable, deep and absolutely necessary.”

Leadership workshop

O Líder Vital

At Serasa Experian, through Juliana Sawaia Consultoria, I facilitated a workshop on well-being in leadership. The group discussed microstress, the pressure to be perfect and the place of self-care in everyday work.

We explored how leaders’ well-being shows up in decisions, relationships and the way they respond to pressure.

“One of the things that stayed with me most was letting go of the pressure to be perfect and remembering the importance of self-care.”
