Let’s Talk Better: Identity and Self-Worth

Let’s Talk Better: Identity and Self-worth v2

If we are to have sound mental health and lead fulfilling lives, understanding our own identity and self-worth is vital. Yet this cornerstone of our existence is often neglected.

Each of us needs a deeper understanding of who we are, our values, and our boundaries, based on an awareness of how special and irreplaceable we all are as individuals.

This essential script for life is seldom communicated and we are affected by many external factors from the day we are born (as an empty canvas) for better or worse. This isn’t talked about enough by parents/carers, in schools, workplaces and even between friends- leaving people without a strong sense of who they are and their boundaries. Not having the tools at hand to know how to cope with the pressures and expectations of society, can result in people feeling isolated, vulnerable, and in some cases, eventually suicidal.

Our latest Let’s Talk Better event will explore these issues and help attendees to understand identity and self-worth and to be able to help others. The event will feature keynote speaker Thomas Curran, Associate Professor of Psychological and Behavioural Science at the London School of Economics, and author of the book ‘The Perfection Trap’.

The event also features Trauma Therapist Susie K. Brooks, singer Oliver Anderson; award-winning businessman Chandra Sharma, who works with the Federation of Small Business (FSB) and the Start-Up Bromley business service, and Oliver Anderson,  a local Bromley singer and song-writer.

Activities will be led by Let’s Talk Better Co-Founders Zeenat Noorani and Darren Weale.

The event is sponsored by Radfield Home Care.

We are pleased to be holding our 5th event, once again at The Community House in Bromley a wonderful location where many events, workshops, and seminars are held. Several charities are also based here at this location.

Zeenat and Darren can't wait to see you there!
