With more than 30-years’ experience in early years education, family and parenting programs, training and facilitation, and working with people experiencing mental health and family violence, Alison brings a wealth of learning, stories and practice wisdom to her role as Training Specialist at Innovative Resources.
Alison’s training is not only imbued with stories and experiences, but also an insatiable curiosity about the world and what makes humans tick.
She first encountered The Bears in 1997 and still loves their powerful simplicity … a bear showing us how they are feeling.
‘I just love so many of the cards, depending on the where, or who, or when. The moments of light within the Shadows cards, the quirky characters in Eating Disorders, and the way Nature of Strengths taps into the strengths of the natural world.’ When she’s not planning the next training or card hack session, you might find Alison enjoying dinner (the spicier the better) with family and friends, binging a Scandinavian crime thriller, or spending time in nature.
