Testimonials

See why our clients have to say...

Cassie and Heidi skillfully blended research-based insights with practical strategies that could be implemented immediately in the classroom. The resources provided during the session have helped me to support students to tune into their own emotions and manage them in a safe and respectful way. I found the session incredibly empowering and valuable for both my own emotional intelligence and in supporting my student's emotional intelligence growth. As a teacher, time is precious, and this was definitely worth my time!

Stephanie

Primary School Teacher

The presentation we attended with Heidi and Cass was an absolute game-changer for us as parents. They provided such valuable insights and practical strategies on nurturing our children's emotional intelligence. Their session was not only informative but also incredibly engaging, with real stories delivered in a non-judgmental and empathetic way. We have already seen a difference in our son's ability to name and tame his emotions!

Frequently Asked Questions

We often get asked these questions when it comes to Emotional Intelligence and the work that EQ Nexus delivers.

With rising rates of burnout, low wellbeing and a significant decline in emotional intelligence scores globally, investing in Emotional Intelligence (EQ) training has never been more important. Emotionally intelligent leaders inspire trust, improve communication, and navigate challenges effectively. EQ fosters collaboration, reduces conflicts, and boosts employee engagement and retention. It also enhances decision-making, resilience, and overall productivity. By prioritising EQ, organisations create a positive, high-performing culture where people thrive, innovate, and succeed.

We won't waste your time! We've attended professional learning that has felt like a waste of time. At EQ Nexus, we know that your time is precious. This is why we endeavor to customise learning to meet the needs of your people, and your context. There is no one size fits all!

We are real and realistic! We are doing the work on the ground! We're not sitting in an office, creating professional learning that is removed from the real world! We work with both disadvantaged & privileged communities, highly complex people, and we walk the talk, practicing emotional intelligence every day. The evidence-based approaches we deliver, have been tried and tested within schools, organisations and with individuals.

We actually get it! We know what it's like to feel like you're juggling 100 balls at once. We are parents, partners, siblings, friends and professional people who make mistakes, feel it all, and recognise the implications of cognitive overload! We have personally grown through trauma and wholeheartedly believe in the power of emotional intelligence in breaking unproductive cycles, fulfilling potentials and finding happiness. Together we will dig deep, reflect, and apply insights in a safe space for real personal and professional growth.

It's more than fluffy feelings! Emotional intelligence is not just about being in touch with your emotions, it's science. We know through research that EQ skills are learnable, actionable skills that correlate with positive outcomes for individuals, organisations, and communities. We are committed to helping people to develop and practice emotional intelligence so that they are more effective, balanced and healthier.

At EQ Nexus, we bring a unique blend of psychology, education, and leadership expertise to emotional intelligence training. Through storytelling, shared experiences, and meaningful discussions, we empower individuals and teams to lead with emotional intelligence and create lasting impact.
