The Session

Real tools for real workplaces

Julia Grace's favourite audiences are ones that mutter "I'm fine" while juggling more plates than a waiter. The research is clear: the best time to address our mental health is before we think we need to. People under pressure are ready for Julia's message - whether they know it or not.

No matter where you sit on the wellbeing spectrum, Julia delivers neuroscience in plain language, with practical tools for immediate use, and enough humour to make the learning effortless. Science-based and heart-led - it's a blend, and it works.

Programmes that promote mental health in the workplace return $2.30 for every $1 invested, on average. Deloitte, 2020
