All this month's resources in one place...
Every month, our team of experts spend hours distilling our knowledge and the latest research into engaging, easy-to-digest video learning modules and printable toolkits. This year, we are even adding a couple of links to podcasts we know you will love, too!
Feedback from you, our lovely members, has been that is it quite overwhelming and you are not sure where to start.
So in 2023, we have decided to create a monthly resource pack that you can work through at your own speed. You can track your progress in the progress bar above, and – the icing on the cake – if you complete all the elements before the end of this month, we will award you 100 extra sparkly points for you to redeem against purchases on the site (including your monthly subs)!
Get started now to make the most of these amazing resources.

Join our co-founder Victoria Bagnall for this short neuro-insight module to understand more about how questioning (the foundation of our work at Connections in Mind) can help you and others around you to reach their goals.
