Testimonial: Head of Early Education UOW Pulse
As the Head of Early Education at UOW Pulse, I had the privilege of leading a team of 9 Early Education Leaders through a transformative 6-month corporate workshop series facilitated by Sarah Cremona. This experience has had a profound impact on both my team and me.
The key outcomes I sought for the series included equipping the team with skills to set clearer professional boundaries, manage their wellbeing, and handle feelings of overwhelm.
What we achieved far exceeded my expectations. One of the most significant outcomes was the boost in employee self-esteem, emotional regulation, and daily coping strategies. These improvements have noticeably enhanced self-confidence and morale across the team, creating a more positive and supportive working environment. The emotional health skills we gained, particularly in self-regulation, have been incredibly effective in promoting both individual and collective wellbeing. These strategies have strengthened our daily interactions and provided us with valuable tools to navigate challenges more effectively.
Furthermore, the practical strategies focused on boundary setting and transitioning from work to home have had a lasting impact. These tools have allowed us to become more resilient leaders, ensuring that we prioritise our own wellbeing to lead and support our teams more effectively. As a result, we've seen stronger leadership and better outcomes for our educators and the children we care for.
While the workshop series played a key role in our development, it’s important to acknowledge the additional efforts made by our leaders outside of the program. Their commitment to continuous reflection, growth, and applying these new skills in real world settings has been instrumental in shaping the lasting change within our team. Their ongoing dedication to refining their leadership practices and supporting each other has further amplified the positive outcomes from this experience.
Overall, this workshop series with Sarah has been a game-changer. It has provided simple yet powerful techniques that are easy to implement and sustainable. The positive effects continue to benefit our teams and culture on a daily basis.
I highly recommend this program to any organisation looking to empower their team, foster a positive culture, and create lasting change for both employees and the business.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What exactly are these workshops about?
Each session is designed to create a safe, intentional space for both personal growth and professional development. We blend grounding techniques with practical tools that focus on leadership, emotional regulation, boundaries, balance between work & home plus sustainable productivity. This is where personal insight meets real-world business impact.
​
Q: How is this different from a typical team-building day?
This goes far beyond icebreakers and motivational pep talks. These sessions are immersive, intentional experiences that foster emotional intelligence, self-leadership, and resilience — key foundations of empowered teams and aligned leadership. The transformation isn't temporary — it ripples into everyday team culture and performance.
​
Q: Is this just another inspirational talk or fluffy wellbeing session?
No. While the environment is nurturing, the work is structured, powerful, practical yet flexible to adapt to where your team needs to move. This isn’t surface-level positivity — it’s about deep, lasting change.
Participants walk away with tools they can integrate immediately into their leadership, communication, and stress management.
​
Q: Will this actually support our business goals?
Absolutely — and it’s not one-size-fits-all. We begin with a consultation where I work directly with you to understand your team dynamics, challenges, and company objectives. Based on this, we co-create a tailored experience that aligns with your vision, values, and strategic outcomes.
​
Q: What makes the experience tailored to our team?
In addition to the initial consultation, each participant completes a confidential pre-workshop questionnaire, helping us identify relevant themes, needs, and opportunities for growth. This ensures the workshop feels relevant, safe, and transformative for every person in the room.
​
Q: What kinds of teams benefit most from this?
This work is especially impactful for:
-
Female-led businesses and leadership teams
-
Teams experiencing growth, burnout, or communication challenges
-
Founders, managers, and team leaders aiming to build more emotional resilience and connection
-
Organisations committed to nurturing a high-performing, values-aligned workplace culture
Q: What kind of outcomes can we expect?
Clients often report:
-
Boosted confidence and morale across the team
-
Clearer communication and stronger interpersonal relationships
-
Practical strategies for emotional regulation and navigating pressure
-
Higher retention and engagement
-
A ripple effect of stronger leadership and self-awareness across the business
Q: Will everyone be expected to share personal stories?
Sharing is always optional. Some people thrive through open dialogue, others by simply listening and reflecting. Every participant is free to engage in the way that feels safest and most comfortable for them.
Q: How long is a typical session?
Sessions can range from 90-minute intensives to full-day immersions. For deeper impact, many organisations choose a multi-session series over 3 to 6 months, allowing for ongoing integration and growth.
Q: What should participants bring or wear?
Comfortable clothing is encouraged, along with a notepad, pen, and water bottle. For off-site sessions or retreats, a short list of personal items may be recommended ahead of time.
Q: Can individuals attend or is this strictly for teams?
Both options are available. You can book private sessions for your team or refer individuals to attend Sarah’s open enrolment workshops and leadership programs held throughout the year.
