The purchase of ‘Stronger Than Anxiety’ provides a personal license for individual use only. If you would like to have the content made available to children and teens in your school or organisation, we can certainly make that happen. Depending on your specific needs, there are two options:

Option 1: A Broadcast License

To access the content from within your school or organisation, any time.

Who is a broadcast license best for?

A broadcast licence is best for schools, organisations, or clinicians (such as psychologists, counsellors, school counsellors, therapists) who would like to make the content available to all young people within their school or organisation, or with individual students or clients as part of their sessions. A broadcast license is for viewing and access on your premises exclusively.

Is there a limit on the number of people who can access the content?

There’s no limit at all, as long as they are enrolled in your school or organisation and watch the material on your premises.

Does our whole school need to watch it at the same time? I mean, we like each other but sometimes we like to do our own thing.

You certainly don’t need to watch it all together. The content will be available for 4 months, so individuals, groups, classes, or year levels can view the material at their own pace, as many times as they want.

If our students would like to watch the content from home, say, with a parent or carer, will the broadcast license include this?

No, a broadcast license allows you to make the content available to anyone within your organisation, but the content must be accessed from within your school or organisation. If you would like to make the content viewable outside your school or organisation for the young people enrolled with you, we have another option that would be perfect. Take a look at the multiple license option (Option 2) below. This will be the one for you.

How long can the content be accessed for?

The content will be accessible for 4 months from when your license is activated. During that time, the content can be accessed as many times as you like, provided it is viewed on your premises.

Can each student have their own workbook?

Yes, absolutely. The license provides for you to download the workbook and copy it as many times as you need for the children or teens in your school or organisation.

Okay. This is the one. How do we purchase a broadcast license?
  • First, we’ll need some details from you. Please email with:
    • the name of your school or organisation;
    • a billing email;
    • the number of students in your school or organisation.
  • We will then issue an invoice and when payment is made, we’ll send through access details.
What does a broadcast license include?

Each license will provide access to:

  • ‘Stronger Than Anxiety’ course video (42 minutes).
  • ‘Calming Your Amygdala’ downloadable workbook. Once this has been downloaded, you can copy this as many times as needed for each student viewing the course to have their own individual copy.
Let’s talk cost. How much?

The cost for a broadcast license is AUD $2000.

Okay. This is the one. How do I purchase a broadcast license?
  • First, we’ll need some details from you. Please email with:
    • the name of your school or organisation;
    • a billing email;
    • the number of students in your school or organisation.
  • We will then issue an invoice and when payment is made, we’ll send through access details.

Option 2: Multiple License Bundle

To access the content from anywhere, any time.

Who is this best for?

This option is best if you would like the content available to individual students or families from your school or organisation, for access outside your premises. This option will allow children, teens, or their immediate families to access the material from home. This will make way for parents to view the content alongside their children or teens and have meaningful conversations within the family about courage and resilience, and ways through anxiety.

How is this different to the broadcast license?

The broadcast license is for one license that allows you to show it to the people within your school or organisation, from within your premises only. Multiple licenses are separate licenses that allow the course to be accessed by individual children, teens, or families from within their own homes. A broadcast license allows the content to be accessed from one location, whereas multiple licenses allow the content to be accessed from multiple separate locations, and by different families.

How long will the course content be accessible for?

The course content will be available for 3 months from the date of activation of a license. For example, if you purchase a bundle of 25 licenses, each license will allow for three months of access from the date of activation of that particular license.

What’s included?

Each license includes:

  • ‘Stronger Than Anxiety’ video (42-minutes).
  • ‘Calming Your Amygdala’ downloadable workbook.
Is there a discount if I purchase multiple licenses?

Of course! The discount will depend on the number of licences you purchase. The more licenses, the higher the discount:

  • 10-25 licenses – 30% discount
    • To calculate: [number of licenses] x [cost of course] x 0.7 = what you pay
  • 26-50 licenses – 40% discount
    • To calculate: [number of licenses] x [cost of course] x 0.6 = what you pay
  • 51-100 licenses – 50% discount
    • To calculate: [number of licenses] x [cost of course] x 0.5 = what you pay
  • 101-200 licenses – 60% discount.
    • To calculate: [number of licenses] x [cost of course] x 0.4 = what you pay.
  • More than 200 licenses – Please get in touch.
How can I purchase multiple licenses, and how does the process work from there?
  • First, we will need a few details from you. Please email with:
    • the name of your school or organisation;
    • a billing email address;
    • the number of individual licenses you would like to purchase.
  • We will then issue an invoice, and when payment is made, access will be provided in one of two ways (you choose):
    • Option 1:
      • We will provide one code that will be valid for as many uses as the number of licenses purchased.
      • You can then share this code with as many families in your school or organisation as you have purchased licenses for. The code will provide each family or individual with a 100% discount for the purchase of the course.
      • The code will be valid for as many uses as the number of licenses as you have purchased. For example, if you purchase 25 licenses, the code can be used 25 times for a 100% discount each time.
      • When the course is purchased (with the 100% discount code), this will provide access to the course content will be provided for 3 months.
    • Option 2:
      • We will provide different codes, for as many licenses as you have purchased. For example, if you purchase 25 licenses, we will provide you with 25 different codes. Each of those 25 codes can be used once for a 100% discount off the purchase price.
      • A code can then be provided to each child or family a license has been purchased for.
      • When the course is purchased (with the 100% discount code), this will provide access to the course content for 3 months.

We don’t need to protect kids from the discomfort of anxiety.

We’ll want to, but as long as they’re safe (including in their bodies with sensory and physiological needs met), we don’t need to - any more than we need to protect them from the discomfort of seatbelts, bike helmets, boundaries, brushing their teeth.

Courage isn’t an absence of anxiety. It’s the anxiety that makes something brave. Courage is about handling the discomfort of anxiety.

When we hold them back from anxiety, we hold them back - from growth, from discovery, and from building their bravery muscles.

The distress and discomfort that come with anxiety won’t hurt them. What hurts them is the same thing that hurts all of us - feeling alone in distress. So this is what we will protect them from - not the anxiety, but feeling alone in it.

To do this, speak to the anxiety AND the courage.

This will also help them feel safer with their anxiety. It puts a story of brave to it rather than a story of deficiency (‘I feel like this because there’s something wrong with me,’) or a story of disaster (‘I feel like this because something bad is about to happen.’).

Normalise, see them, and let them feel you with them. This might sound something like:

‘This feels big doesn’t it. Of course you feel anxious. You’re doing something big/ brave/ important, and that’s how brave feels. It feels scary, stressful, big. It feels like anxiety. It feels like you feel right now. I know you can handle this. We’ll handle it together.’

It doesn’t matter how well they handle it and it doesn’t matter how big the brave thing is. The edges are where the edges are, and anxiety means they are expanding those edges.

We don’t get strong by lifting toothpicks. We get strong by lifting as much as we can, and then a little bit more for a little bit longer. And we do this again and again, until that feels okay. Then we go a little bit further. Brave builds the same way - one brave step after another.

It doesn’t matter how long it takes and it doesn’t matter how big the steps are. If they’ve handled the discomfort of anxiety for a teeny while today, then they’ve been brave today. And tomorrow we’ll go again again.♥️

Feeling seen, safe, and cared for is a biological need. It’s not a choice and it’s not pandering. It’s a biological need.

Children - all of us - will prioritise relational safety over everything.

When children feel seen, safe, and a sense of belonging they will spend less resources in fight, flight, or withdrawal, and will be free to divert those resources into learning, making thoughtful choices, engaging in ways that can grow them.

They will also be more likely to spend resources seeking out those people (their trusted adults at school) or places (school) that make them feel good about themselves, rather than avoiding the people of spaces that make them feel rubbish or inadequate.

Behaviour support and learning support is about felt safety support first.

The schools and educators who know this and practice it are making a profound difference, not just for young people but for all of us. They are actively engaging in crime prevention, mental illness prevention, and nurturing strong, beautiful little people into strong, beautiful big ones.♥️

Emotion is e-motion. Energy in motion.

When emotions happen, we have two options: express or depress. That’s it. They’re the options.

When your young person (or you) is being swamped by big feelings, let the feelings come.

Hold the boundary around behaviour - keep them physically safe and let them feel their relationship with you is safe, but you don’t need to fix their feelings.

They aren’t a sign of breakage. They’re a sign your child is catalysing the energy. Our job over the next many years is to help them do this respectfully.

When emotional energy is shut down, it doesn’t disappear. It gets held in the body and will come out sideways in response to seemingly benign things, or it will drive distraction behaviours (such as addiction, numbness).

Sometimes there’ll be a need for them to control that energy so they can do what they need to do - go to school, take the sports field, do the exam - but the more we can make way for expression either in the moment or later, the safer and softer they’ll feel in their minds and bodies.

Expression is the most important part of moving through any feeling. This might look like talking, moving, crying, writing, yelling.

This is why you might see big feelings after school. It’s often a sign that they’ve been controlling themselves all day - through the feelings that come with learning new things, being quiet and still, trying to get along with everyone, not having the power and influence they need (that we all need). When they get into the car at pickup, finally those feelings they’ve been holding on to have a safe place to show up and move through them and out of them.

It can be so messy! It takes time to learn how to lasso feelings and words into something unmessy.

In the meantime, our job is to hold a tender, strong, safe place for that emotional energy to move out of them.

Hold the boundary around behaviour where you can, add warmth where you can, and when they are calm talk about what happened and how they might do things differently next time. And be patient. Just because someone tells us how to swing a racket, doesn’t mean we’ll win Wimbledon tomorrow. Good things take time, and loads of practice.♥️

Thank you Adelaide! Thank you for your stories, your warmth, for laughing with me, spaghetti bodying with me (when you know, you know), for letting me scribble on your books, and most of all, for letting me be a part of your world today.

So proud to share the stage with Steve Biddulph, @matt.runnalls ,
@michellemitchell.author, and @nathandubsywant. To @sharonwittauthor - thank you for creating this beautiful, brave space for families to come together and grow stronger.

And to the parents, carers, grandparents - you are extraordinary and it’s a privilege to share the space with you.

Parenting is big work. Tender, gritty, beautiful, hard. It asks everything of us - our strength, our softness, our growth. We’re raising beautiful little people into beautiful big people, and at the same time, we’re growing ourselves.

Sometimes that growth feels impatient and demanding - like we’re being wrenched forward before we’re ready, before our feet have found the ground.

But that’s the nature of growth isn’t it. It rarely waits for permission. It asks only that we keep moving.

And that’s okay.

There’s no rush. You have time. We have time.

In the meantime they will keep growing us, these little humans of ours. Quietly, daily, deeply. They will grow us in the most profound ways if we let them. And we must let them - for their sake, for our own, and for the ancestral threads that tie us to the generations that came before us, and those that will come because of us. We will grow for them and because of them.♥️

Their words might be messy, angry, sad. They might sound bigger than the issue, or as though they aren’t about the issue at all.

The words are the warning lights on the dashboard. They’re the signal that something is wrong, but they won’t always tell us exactly what that ‘something’ is. Responding only to the words is like noticing the light without noticing the problem.

Our job isn’t to respond to their words, but to respond to the feelings and the need behind the words.

First though, we need to understand what the words are signalling. This won’t always be obvious and it certainly won’t always be easy.

At first the signal might be blurry, or too bright, or too loud, or not obvious.

Unless we really understand the problem behind signal - the why behind words - we might inadvertently respond to what we think the problem is, not what the problem actually is.

Words can be hard and messy, and when they are fuelled by big feelings that can jet from us with full force. It is this way for all of us.

Talking helps catalyse the emotion, and (eventually) bring the problem into a clearer view.

But someone needs to listen to the talking. You won’t always be able to do this - you’re human too - but when you can, it will be one of the most powerful ways to love them through their storms.

If the words are disrespectful, try:

‘I want to hear you but I love you too much to let you think it’s okay to speak like that. Do you want to try it a different way?’

Expectations, with support. Leadership, with warmth. Then, let them talk.

Our job isn’t to fix them - they aren’t broken. Our job is to understand them so we can help them feel seen, safe, and supported through the big of it all. When we do this, we give them what they need to find their way through.♥️
