Struggle

Unlocking Creativity & Resilience in the Face of Adversity & Uncertainty.

In a world that’s obsessed with fast hacks, quick wins, ruthless efficiency and Instagram-perfection, struggle has become taboo. A sign that something’s gone horribly wrong.

But what if we’ve got it all wrong about getting it wrong? What if struggle isn’t a battle to fight, a trap to avoid, or a sign of weakness? What if struggle is precisely where the magic happens – where we do our best, most important work?

Based on the book by Productivity Ninja, Grace Marshall, ‘Struggle: The surprising truth, beauty and opportunity hidden in life’s sh*ttier moments’, you’ll come to see that our approach to struggle is the biggest challenge and the most beautiful problem for people-who-work-with-people to face together.

Without glorifying struggle, we can face it with confidence. We’ll guide you through the landscape of struggle and out the other side. You’ll leave with a new way of seeing struggle that strengthens your relationships, resilience, enabling more innovation, learning and growth. Emboldening your next steps.

This session is for you if:

  • Your organisation is going through change, uncertainty or a difficult period and you want to give people a thoughtful, honest space to process it together
  • You’re planning a team away day, all-hands or conference and want a keynote that sparks genuine conversation rather than just leaving people with a to-do list
  • You lead a team where mistakes, setbacks or conflict tend to be avoided rather than learned from, and you want to shift that culture
  • You’re an HR or L&D lead looking for something that builds psychological safety and resilience in a way that feels fresh, human and anything but corporate

Brilliant session. Love the 3 S’s. Looking forward to using this with my team.

    Almost anything that affects how your team works. Common examples include communication overload, unclear roles, clashing priorities, hybrid tensions, meeting chaos, workflow bottlenecks or a team that feels stretched and disconnected. If it’s affecting focus, clarity or morale, we can help.
    Is this suitable for teams in conflict or under pressure?
    Yes. The session gives people space to talk openly, understand each other’s perspectives and create shared agreements without blame or defensiveness. It’s structured, calm and supportive.
    Do you cover hybrid and remote challenges?
    Absolutely. Hybrid and remote strain often sits underneath many team struggles. We help teams explore expectations, communication, fairness and boundaries so everyone feels clearer and more connected.
