Before we go any further, let&#39;s get one thing clear. &nbsp;This is not another piece of &#39;self-help&#39; content that&#39;s going to leave you feeling worse than you did before. It&#39;s not another piece of content full of advice and a great long list of stuff that you SHOULD be doing (but don&#39;t have time for). It is, in fact, the exact opposite.It&#39;s a chance for you to take a breath and re-connect with what matters to you as a parent. A moment to pause and notice what&#39;s currently working - and the bits that aren&#39;t. A space for YOU to decide what route you&#39;d like to take, which advice you&#39;d like to follow. AND, most important of all, a few precious minutes of support and kindness for you as you tough it through the most challenging role of your life.What will you gain?&nbsp; You&#39;d be surprised. For some it&#39;s about perspective and recognition, for others it&#39;s the support and just knowing that they&#39;re not alone. All we know is that moments like these matter and we&#39;d love for you to join us!This little workshop is currently FREE&nbsp;while we make sure that it&#39;s working the way that we&#39;d like.

General Admission

No one ever said that being a parent was easy, but when on earth did being a parent get so blooming hard? &nbsp;From conflicting work and school/nursery schedules to the multitude of clubs, activities and socialising opportunities filling up your calendar. It&#39;s a lot. And that&#39;s before we talk about the basic stuff needed to run a household and get everyone where they need to be AND all the &#39;quality time&#39; and emotional stuff that all your social media guru&#39;s keep reminding you about. &nbsp;If you collapse into bed exhausted every night, no wonder! &nbsp;If your &#39;stuff&#39; is constantly at the back of the line, well, that&#39;s just how it is. Right?&nbsp;&nbsp;And then there are the holidays. The annual headache that never seems to improve. The mental gymnastics and juggling involved should surely be an Olympic sport. But, here we are, and yet again, you&#39;ve got too many weeks to cover and not enough annual leave to make it work. Simply making it through will be a triumph. When you do eventually get your time &#39;away&#39; you&#39;ll be too drained to really enjoy it before it&#39;s back to the merry-go-round to start it all again. But stop. What if there was a way to create space in the chaos? To breathe through the strain and find ease? To change very little but get a HUGE return?If you are thinking &#39;yes&#39; then this little webinar might be just what you need! &nbsp;We won&#39;t be telling you anything you don&#39;t already know, we won&#39;t be sharing schmaltzy fluff that sounds great but means nothing either.

These workshops are designed for those who have read the Six Stages Framework book and want to implement it into their communities and work.
About this event
This seminar supports you to implement ideas from the Six Stages Framework. It is designed for those who are reading or have read my book Understanding and Dealing with Everyday Racism- The Six Stages Framework
There will be an opportunity to discuss this and apply the six stages framework to identify action plans and ways forward.
Come and join us and talk about the challenges you are coming across in this area, share your story. How are you dealing with the challenges. What are your coping strategies and who do you lean on for support?
How is the Six Stages Framework supporting you in understanding discriminatory behaviours and in exploring the behaviours, language and beliefs exhibited by people at the different stages of discrimination.
Let's explore peoples stories through perspective taking. We will also explore where you are in your journey and your action plan for moving in the right direction on the Six Stages Framework.
The seminars are conducted in a no blame and safe space. At the beginning of each seminar the ground rules in the shed to ensure everyone's safety and ability to contribute.
Check out my previous posts/ podcast and Youtube video on Understanding and Dealing with Everyday Discriminations and Behaviours.

I will be discussing the stages of the SIX STAGES FRAMEWORK from my new book. For a summary of the stages visit my website.
https://www.sixstagesframework.com/six-stages-framework/what-are-the-six-stages/
The Six Stages Framework offers a language to talk about spectrum of discriminations. This includes violent acts on the negative dimensions of the Six Stages where people spiral out of control into bad, and destructive behaviours culminating at stage -6 which some may refer to as extreme and violent behaviours.
Whilst the Six Stages framework was originally formulated with racism and racial injustice in mind, it can be adapted to other forms of discriminations such as gender, disability or LGBTQ and also to other extreme acts such as violence towards women or violent killings like we have just seen in Uvalde and Buffalo.
Sometimes we fail to see the signs and symptoms of behaviours spiralling down the negative axis of the Six Stages Framework whether that be as it applies to racism or to other forms of discriminations including violence. Is this because we don’t have the language to think about these issues or because we just don’t like to think about behaviours.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION TO THE SIX STAGES FRAMEWORK
“The Six Stages Framework is an action-based positive tool that will speak to many people and provide the language many people feel that they don't have to speak about their own biases and racism. “What is special about the Six Stages Framework, is that it is a positive, action-based, non-judgemental tool that is essential to addressing sensitive topics.“ Aishling Dempsey, MSc Clinical Health Psychology student/ Honorary Psychology Assistant, Inclusion Psychologists Ltd.
In supporting individuals and organisations to understand and challenge racism it is important to explore and to be able to identify some of the beliefs, values and behaviours individuals and organisations engage in as they struggle to reformulate their views and challenge their own prejudices.
The stages are designed to support individuals and organisations to identify where they are in terms of their awareness of understanding and responding to racism. It is important that as a society we appreciate that we all at different stages in our journey towards understanding and dealing with racism and promoting a more equitable society which does not discriminate according to one’s race, colour and/or appearance.

WHAT ARE THE SIX STAGES?
Description of the Six Stages of Understanding and Dealing with Racism (+ axis)
The Six Stages Framework is a psychological tool that is designed to assess where individual people or organisations are in their journey towards understanding and dealing with the complexities of individual and systemic racism, whether that is conscious or unconscious, overt or covert: direct or indirect
Stage +1: Unaware, silence and denial
This stage is characterised by having a lack of awareness of racial equity and diversity issues, often presenting as ignorance or being oblivious or ethnocentric. It is characterised by silence or denial of such issues, perhaps by keeping one’s head down, hoping a whole conversation will end, or finding ways to divert from a particular topic to other subjects that seem safer.
Stage +2: Dismissive and avoidant
People at this stage are aware of issues of race, however they are often dismissive of these issues and often believe that racial inequity and social injustice is not such a big issue. There is denial (and avoidance) that racial and social injustice is an issue, and an opinion that there are far more important inequalities and injustices in the world. This is what they tell themselves and others. The denial and discomfort that arises results in avoidance/resistance/anger and shifting attention to other issues that feel more manageable and tolerable.
They are more comfortable talking about gender issues and disability and will always point to other inequalities rather than racism.
At stage +2 people are avoidant of facing race issues; this distinguishes them from the person at stage +1 who is oblivious and ignorant.
Stage +3: Becoming aware of issues of race
At this stage, people are becoming aware of differences and of racism. They begin to question their original stance at Stages +1 and +2. They recognise that there is inequity and racism, but do not understand why, or what they can do about it. They express discomfort about talking about racial differences and racism and feel overwhelmed by the issues. They often express a sense of helplessness, guilt and even shame, and they just want to make everything be okay for everyone.
Stage +4: Open to learning
People at this stage are open to learning and having meaningful conversations about race, including challenging perceptions and biases. They are genuinely willing to listen, learn and re-educate themselves, and may seek out literature on the experiences and testimonials of black people and other ethnic minority groups. They reflect and readily engage in conversations about social, racial injustice and racism and will explore (and own) any unconscious bias they have,
Stage +5: Ability to see the bigger picture
This stage features an ability to reflect and genuinely engage in conversations and with the issues of social/racial injustice and racism, whereby people start to see the bigger picture around race. They are able to explore and own their unconscious bias, white privilege or other positions of power informed by the reading and education gained in Stage +4. They are keen to explore their role as an ally and how they can make a difference.
Stage +6: Leadership qualities
People at this stage are able to take on leadership roles in promoting racial equity, inclusion and social justice. They may join together with others to challenge social injustice and racism, possibly through community engagement, or through a desire to work with others towards a greater cause with the understanding that there is more that unites us than separates us. They understand that racism is about power and systems and focus their energies on supporting change in this area. They will speak up when necessary and challenge racism or perceptions of racism when others are afraid to. They are clear about allyship and their role.
What are your first thoughts about these stages? (e.g. have you seen these stages occurring in others? Are they accurate?) The model is not linear but fluid and dynamic.
