Educating young minds about their emotions
Hi all. I’m Jodi, the creator of Worley and Co who are my tribe of emotion monsters and founder of Future Footsteps Coaching. I run a friendly supportive community for families looking to nurture and educate young minds about their emotions. I’m a Children’s Empowerment Coach and published author inspiring your children to grow in confidence whilst learning how to understand and manage their emotions.
Having suffered several childhood traumas which led to mental health issues as an adult, I have used my experiences alongside years of training to empower children to #bebravelikeworley (Worley being my main emotion monster!) by teaching strategies so they can fill their emotional regulation toolkits. Every child is different. The way we view the world is unique to us. It is the same for our children. The Future Footsteps approach is a revolutionary way of empowering your children to understand and manage their emotions.
Through a variety of therapeutic techniques, activities and physical resources, I provide them with the tools they need to develop their ability to self-regulate. From engaging, thought-provoking activities to calming and more relaxing ones, Future Footsteps has your children at the heart of everything I do. Ensuring children grow up to be happy, confident and resilient kids! When our children are faced with challenging situations having the tools to manage big emotions and their even bigger reactions can be a great way to reduce the negative feelings that often surface. By using strategies that work for your child, you can support them to refocus the brain to bring a sense of calm during difficult times.
Natasha and I have recently connected and she’s been incredibly supportive of my journey of being a new mum. Juggling raising my gorgeous daughter alongside still working as a teacher and trying to build my business. Through her vast knowledge of essential oils and well-being she has provided me with incredible tools to give me back the energy I need to be the best Mummy possible and also helped with Luna and her sleeping troubles (touch wood these have been so much better). I am excited what the future holds because I really do believe our two businesses compliment each other so well.
We also share the same missions and values. Your children, our children are at the core of the work we promote.
