Skills you can use at work and at home.

Develop a shared language for overwhelm, communication needs, boundaries and repair—while creating healthier and more neuroinclusive working relationships.

Finding My Steady with Glad We Talked® offers a gentle, practical way to explore communication, overwhelm and connection.

This lens is for people, teams and leaders in the workplace, with a focus on workplace overwhelm, communication needs, boundaries and neuroinclusive working relationships.

Does this sound familiar?

Work keeps piling up

Meetings, messages, noise, deadlines. There’s no time to process one thing before the next arrives.

Asking for things feels tense

Raising a concern, asking for leave or asking for help feels hard. You want calm ways to speak up.

Small misunderstandings grow

An abrupt email. An unclear request. Unspoken expectations. Tension builds and nobody says why.

The team is running on empty

Stress spreads. People cover for each other, go off sick or come in unwell. Good people start to leave.

Managers are stuck in the middle

You want to support your team, but you’re stretched too. You’re not sure what to say or what adjustments you can offer.

Different needs, one way of working

Neurodivergence, menopause, caring at home, coming back after time away. One size doesn’t fit all.

Work is asking a lot right now

  • 964,000 workers had stress, depression or anxiety caused or made worse by work. 22.1 million working days were lost. (HSE, 2024/25)
  • 29% of organisations train line managers to support mental health. (CIPD, 2025)
  • 32% of employees say their employer trains managers well on adjustments for neurodivergent colleagues. (Acas, 2026)
  • 42% of NHS staff felt unwell from work-related stress in the last year. (NHS Staff Survey 2025)
  • 28% of working women aged 40 to 65 have thought about leaving their job because of menopause symptoms. (Benenden Health, 2026)
  • 2 in 5 parents of children with SEND have left work. Almost half cut their hours or changed role. (Support SEND Kids, 2024)

“Supporting neurodivergent staff can be simple and cost-effective.” Julie Dennis, Acas, March 2026

Who it’s for

This is not only for neurodivergent people. It’s for anyone who wants to understand different needs, including their own.

  • Organisations: a shared language for stress, needs and repair across your teams. It supports your wellbeing, inclusion and retention plans.
  • Managers and team leaders: practical ways to spot rising stress, have calmer conversations and agree adjustments that work. No diagnosis needed.
  • Employees: understand what drains you, what helps, and how to ask for it.
  • Self-employed people and business owners: balance demands, boundaries and relationships with clients.

Made for real working lives

  • Going through menopause: name what’s changing, and talk about it more easily.
  • Returning to work: rebuild confidence and set boundaries after time away.
  • Parenting a child with SEND: hold work and care together, and ask for the flexibility you need.
  • Neurodivergent, or working with someone who is: sensory needs, thinking time and different ways of communicating.
  • Managing a team: support your people without running yourself down.

Work doesn’t stop at the office door. Neither does stress.

Skills that travel with you

Everything you learn works in a meeting and at the kitchen table.

  • Notice stress early. At work, before a deadline tips you over. At home, before you snap.
  • Say what you need. At work, ask for an adjustment calmly. At home, share the load without a row.
  • Read what’s underneath. At work, the abrupt email or the quiet colleague. At home, the need behind a child’s meltdown.
  • Repair after conflict. At work, after a hard conversation. At home, after an argument.
  • Keep boundaries. Protect your time and energy, and leave work at work.

For organisations

Learning and change, together. Staff learn the skills. Managers learn to act on them. We also look at workload and working conditions, because they matter as much as self-care.

Start with a pilot. Run it with one team. We’ll help you measure what people find useful and what changes at work.

For NHS trusts. The NHS staff standards (July 2026) expect managers who are trained to support health and wellbeing, and support for staff going through menopause. This programme can be part of how you get there.

Begin in a way that works for you

Start with the welcome lessons. Then take one lesson, prompt or activity at a time.

Pause, come back, and see how each idea fits your working life. Reflect through words, marks or images, whatever works for you.
