Topics, sessions and talks
We will explore tangible strategies to begin to build stronger, more enjoyable social connections and more meaningful relationships, including the concept of presence and making time, kindness and compassion, nourishing activities and how we can build meaningful relationships at work and at play. Participants will leave the session with an understanding of the importance of prioritising our connection with others to enhance our health and wellbeing, along with ideas for how to overcome obstacles to achieving this.
In today's fast-paced corporate environment, feelings of anxiety and stress are increasingly common. The pressure can be overwhelming, whether it's presenting in front of colleagues, navigating office politics, or managing heavy workloads. Join us for a cutting-edge science-based workshop, packed with actionable insights, to demystify anxiety and learn practical, evidence-based strategies to put a stop to the anxiety vicious cycle of unease, overthinking and avoidance. You will gain a greater sense of inner peace and control.
This breakout session applies social fitness specifically to the workplace, focusing on practical habits colleagues can build together during the working day to strengthen connection at work. Participants try simple exercises, from short check-ins to shared activities, and leave with ideas for supporting employee wellbeing, productivity, and teamwork in their own workplace.
Happiness in the workplace drives profits; happy employees are better negotiators, team players, more resilient and creative. With the right tools, habits and strategies, happiness becomes a skill that you can cultivate and grow, pretty much regardless of the challenges you are facing. Forget everything you think you know about happiness and embark on an energising and confidence-building workshop to uncover the happiness formula and elevate your emotional wellbeing, especially during challenging times.
Your mindset is the prism through which you create your own experience of life. It can be your best asset or your worst enemy. Whether you're a leader looking to inspire your team or an individual striving for personal growth, this workshop will help you create a brighter future for yourself and your organisation. During this engaging and transformative workshop, you'll learn practical strategies to harness the power of positivity, overcome challenges with resilience, elevate your outlook & amplify your impact.
Steph offers your team the transformative opportunity to learn vital happiness skills, enhancing resilience, optimism, and confidence. Her unique blend of compassion, real-life experience, and evidence-based strategies will equip your business, fostering a contagious culture of well-being and peak performance.

Something we've not covered here?
Steph Peltier structures her sessions around evidence-based frameworks drawn from positive psychology and neuroscience, translating research from sources such as UC Berkeley's Science of Happiness programme into practical exercises participants can apply directly. Her format typically combines a conceptual explanation of the underlying science with hands-on activities — such as short check-ins or shared workplace exercises — so attendees leave with concrete habits rather than theory alone.
