My story
This is the short version of why The STILL Method exists, what I believe about fear, and the different ways people work with me now.
Why I built The STILL Method
Fear is rarely irrational. It is usually logical protection, even when it is ruining your life.
I grew up learning what it feels like when the world does not feel safe. That experience shaped the way I think about anxiety. Not as weakness, not as drama, not as attention seeking, but as a nervous system trying to do its job.
Over the years, I kept meeting the same hidden story in different people. Children who could not walk into school. Parents living in permanent self blame. Adults who looked capable on the outside while privately fighting to stay in control.
I started building a method that focused on one thing. Safety that the body can believe. Not slogans. Not pep talks. Practical tools for the moments when logic disappears and the alarm takes over.
Where this work is used
The work lives in real places, not perfect conditions. Homes, schools, teams, and environments under pressure.
I have spoken on the BBC many times and supported organisations through talks, training, and delivery. The common thread is always the same. When people understand fear, they stop responding with shame and start responding with skill.
The STILL Method is designed to be structured and teachable. It gives people language, tools, and models they can use when things get difficult, not only when they feel calm.
What I believe about anxiety
Anxiety is not a personality flaw. It is prediction running too hot.
Most people do not need more motivation. They need a better relationship with pressure, and a system they can use when their body is convinced something is wrong.
