Hi all, I'm Jo - course leader, coffee addict and mother of 2 ridiculously amazing children. I’m a died-in-the-wool introvert. Would rather stick pins in my eyes than go to a cocktail party. Sign me up for deep and meandering conversations around a campfire. I’ve been on the planet for 62 years now, which feels both quite short and quite long. 35 years walking alongside people as they learn how to understand themselves, grow themselves, steady themselves, and make wiser, kinder choices in their lives. Beautiful work that has kept me from going bonkers in this mad mad world. I’m a very enthusiastic but appallingly bad guitar player. I refuse to give up on things that bring me joy or things that calm me or things that fire me up. This past journey around the sun, I’ve been kept sane by a small circle of very good friends, a decent amount of humour, and the vast, immeasurable benefit of having stumbled across a somatics workshop in my twenties. That one moment changed the course of my life. It gave me a way of understanding the body, the nervous system, emotion, safety, healing, and human development that I have been learning from ever since. Foundations matters to me because I know how much difference it can make to have good support early in life. Not perfect support. Not someone telling you who to be. But grounded, wise, practical support that helps you hear yourself more clearly, trust yourself more deeply, and build a life that actually feels like you. Really looking forward to getting to know you all as the course kicks off...
