Creative Resilience International

creative resilience international

Barcelona

I am passionate about resilience and helping people understand how important resilience is in our lives. I studied with some of the leading international experts working to promote resilience. For the last 5 years I have been actively promoting resilience with individuals, families, organisations and communities. I had spent many years working in the field of positive psychology and therapy and it was here in Barcelona that I discovered the world of resilience and was lucky enough to attend the first post graduate course in the Promotion of Resilience at the University of Barcelona. This allowed me to meet and learn from leading figures in Resilience work in Europe and Latin America and the most generous teachers. I also studied a postgraduate diploma in mental health and migration. Moving around can bring opportunity but also challenges. I have lived in many countries and met a lot of diverse and truly inspiring people in different cultures and languages. Living an international life can feel like an amazing adventure but also comes with its challenges and I have worked with many individuals and families over the years helping them to find their feet again. Life experience, literature, music and films have always fed my resilience work but I have been studying and researching along the way to back up my instincts with analysis and ideas based on theory and practice. Here you can read some of my research in English and Spanish.

Edlin Consulting

My methodology and empathic approach allow me to quickly build high levels of trust and understanding. I pride myself on pragmatism, and typically achieve significant impact within three sessions. I aim for a healthy balance of challenge, support, humour and honesty. My role as your coach is to enable the very best of you. Together we identify your goals, set clear objectives and develop and implement an effective plan in order to achieve them. As a business coach, I have a keen understanding of the pressures, responsibilities and challenges facing leaders and entrepreneurs. It is often observed that my professional skillset is unusual – a lawyer by training but a businessman first – armed with a strong commercial and strategic instinct. I’ve amassed +35 years of experience. I had the privilege to lead, develop and grow high-performing teams, cultivating many leaders in the process, at three different London City law firms (Waltons & Morse, Eversheds and RPC). I adapt my coaching approach to suit your individual needs whether that be a non directive approach, or even include mentoring. I am an advocate of leading coaching principles including Positive Psychology and the StrengthsFinder. These leverage my own core strengths on corporate strategy, effective communication, positivity, people development, networking, responsibility, empathy and inclusion. All of which are at the heart of consistently successful leadership, both in the short and long term. My role as your coach is to enable the very best of you. Together we identify your goals, set clear objectives and develop and implement an effective plan in order to achieve them.

Positive Parenting Project

In 2012 Anita founded The Positive Parenting Project, a social enterprise which aims to bring the benefits of proven evidence-based parenting strategies to as many parents (and children) as possible. Anita started her career in international development, spending four and a half years in Mongolia where she went through both of her pregnancies. (Her eldest son learnt to say ‘mummy’ in Mongolian before he said it in English!). Anita also spent time in Hungary and Kazakhstan. Anita has studied developmental psychology (child development) to postgraduate level and is an accredited Triple P® parenting coach. A leading UK parenting expert, she speaks at events across the country and delivers parenting seminars, webinars and one-to-one support. She is regularly featured as a parenting expert on TV and radio. Fascinated by children and how they develop, Anita has a talent for helping parents view their children and their own parenting strategies from different angles. She is adamant that there is no such thing as a perfect parent and says her ambition with her own children is simply not to make the same mistakes too often. After becoming a single parent, Anita changed careers. She worked as a strategic manager in a local authority children’s services for nine years, setting up and managing early intervention, targeted and specialist family support services including Sure Start Children’s Centres, parent support lines, teenage pregnancy prevention projects and intensive family support.
