SUZANNE HASLETT: CO-FOUNDER & COACH
Suzanne enjoyed a demanding HR career in the airline industry winning her company’s top award for her leadership, before having her life transformed by the birth of her girls.
Fascinated, and challenged by this new role of ‘Mother’ she embarked on studies in human development and psychology and before she knew it her curiosity and interest had unintentionally led her to a masters. Her dissertation research was devoted to parenting and children’s emotional development. Her biggest research ‘aha!’- that parenting is actually a springboard for adult development. She says, “parents influence and inform their children’s growth and development, but the reverse is also true and ever more important. It is our second opportunity to be in a parent / child relationship, but this time we’re the parent which can be triggering, and also a tremendous opportunity for our own growth.”
Suzanne is a great advocate of there being no such thing as the ‘perfect parent’. She says “If we have to be perfect then our kids will feel the pressure to be perfect too, and no one needs that burden. We all makes mistakes, it’s what we do after that matters.”
Wise, thoughtful, and passionate about helping families to thrive. And the curator of amazing and inspired content.
