We are kicking off this "Monday Masterclass" series of events to promote the Better Bolder Braver community by showcasing one of our biggest fans and someone who - in turn - we hugely admire.
Lucy's openness to learning, dedication to getting herself out there as a coach - to help as many people as she can - and her excitement to be in our community make her the best kind of Better Bolder Braver member.
We hope you will enjoy what will no doubt be a very grounding and candid conversation. Here's a bit about Lucy...
Lucy Bramley is a Sustainability Coach. She works with people who want to focus on growth and wellbeing. She enjoys supporting people in identifying what they want their lives to be about, understanding their strengths and values and helping them find meaning and purpose.
One of her specific areas of interest is the brain. She works with concepts such as neuro-agility, psychological safety and positive psychology to equip people to use their brains optimally. Based on these concepts, coaching sessions with Lucy are a rich opportunity for growth... "indeed, she says, "I still learn a lot from the experience myself... That's the beauty of the brain - we all have the ability to keep learning and developing all our lives. We just need to be open to growing these skills."
Another area of passion for Lucy is the natural environment. "There's a synergistic link to brain health in the ability to be in touch with nature. In addition there is so much we can learn from nature in terms of functioning in a system, making the best use of resources and being conscious of our personal impacts on the wider world."
Lucy weaves principles from 'permaculture' and environmental sustainability into her life and her coaching. She believes living a sustainable life, both mentally and physically, is critical for our health and happiness now. "It is undoubtedly critical", she says, "that we focus on this today for our entire ecosystem to survive and thrive in future".
Lucy has worked in the tech sector for the past 23 years and says about it "This is an amazing place to work, at the leading edge of change and innovation... However I have become increasingly aware of the unsustainable cultures that many of us struggle to thrive in at a great many companies today. Organisational designs which lack clarity about scope, reward structures based on bell curves and everyday practices such as wall to wall meetings are not healthy. The opportunities that these issues present lead me to believe there's never been a better time to be a coach, and to be in a vibrant community of different types of coaches."
