‘Surviving The House That Sat Down!’
‘Surviving the house that sat down’ is Alice May’s signature presentation. It is a positive and uplifting talk based on the events of three years ago when Alice’s house partially collapsed one day and she and her husband and 4 children were forced to move into a tent in the garden. They were on the verge of losing everything. It was shocking! And yet it was not the end of the world. Amazing things can come from disaster. As a direct result of what happened that day Alice is now happier than she has ever been before. Using her own personal artwork as illustration, Alice’s signature talk gives a flavour of her inspiring journey from the ruins of her home to her life now as a published author, artist and public speaker. There are two follow up presentations to Alice’s signature talk: Chasing Rainbows: The Power of Art to Heal Have you ever wondered how art therapy works? In this presentation Alice May discusses the power of art to heal, whilst sharing a selection of her own original art and video painting demonstrations. The world is an increasingly stressful place and it is so important that we find ways to deal with the pressures of everyday life. Find out about the many different types of art therapy available to us today. Hear some of the present day theories on why it can be so effective and learn about the pioneering women who influenced the early development of art as a therapy. Inspiration: The road to publication. Come with Alice on her journey towards the publication of her first novel and learn about how the story of ‘The House That Sat Down’ was finally told.

Self – Leadership, Resilience and a Healthy Business Environment Self – leadership is the ability to consider how effectively you are functioning within your business environment and should be an essential part of your day-to-day working pattern in order to enable you to stay on track and achieve your goals.
