I am Superwoman is for any woman who has ever felt this way.

A Better me - Introducing a new approach to Wellbeing ‘Betterment’
‘Imperfectly better wellbeing’
A Better Me delivers science-backed, tried and tested Betterment skills to help your team feel, think, live, connect, work and lead better, without the pressure of perfection.
For anyone who feels like they’re constantly striving to ‘live their best life’ and ‘be their best self’, this keynote keeps wellbeing real.
Camilla shares what she has learnt in her professional and personal life, to help people feel better than they are right now.
Camilla will dig into…
- How comparing yourself to others or trying to be that perfect version of yourself is a recipe for exhaustion, disappointment and self criticism.
- Why, for many of us, wellbeing has become just another overwhelming task that we beat ourselves up for not achieving.
- How the Betterment approach to wellbeing encourages you to know and treat yourself better and empowers hope.
The Betterment mindset workshop
The ‘Betterment Mindset’ talk or workshop supports participants to cultivate a mindset that has been clinically proven to combat the 3 most common reasons people fail in their attempts to improve their wellbeing.
This session is for anyone who struggles with improving their wellbeing or whose wellbeing exterior is a long way from how they feel on the inside. It is also invaluable for leaders who are struggling to shift the dial on their team’s wellbeing.
What it’s about....
Camilla's experience working with 1000s of employees is that all the wellbeing tips, tricks and good intentions in the world won’t work if you don’t get your mindset right first.
Using a combination of science, stories, case studies and easy to implement tools the Betterment Mindset workshop helps employees who:
- Struggle to prioritise their wellbeing or are unaware of what it is they need to change.
- Are prone to perfectionism and overly harsh on themselves.
- Feel hopeless, burnt out, cynical or lacking in motivation when they think about improving their wellbeing.
  Participants will leave with the skills to:
  - Know what to do in challenging times when resilience just isn’t enough.
  - Start prioritising their own self care and wellbeing.
  - Get the balance right between caring for others and caring for self.
  - Drop the need for perfectionism, quiet the inner critic and minimise self doubt.
  - Stop comparing themselves to others.
  - Reframe uncertainty as holding just as much potential for positive as negative outcomes.
  - Restore their hope and plan pathways for a better future.
  - Cultivate the Betterment Mindset in the people around them and the people they lead.
Connect better, live better, work better, think better, feel better, lead better workshops
Empowering women to shift from surviving to thriving
