Meet Toni Powell
She’s an author, TEDx speaker, relationship buff, recovering worrywart and very entertaining storyteller.
What Toni teaches is hard- hitting, scientifically backed life development that cuts to the core of the ways we self-sabotage and allow our brains to trick us into a lifetime of stress.
It’s potent medicine sugared with her funny, disarming and entertaining style of delivery.
This is the core of how she works- to deliver the information we need, in a way that also lets it be the wisdom we want.
Her books, The Yellow Car and What a Feeling! dive straight to the essence of our human capacities to overthink, to create blind spots in our perceptions of the world around us, and to allow past trauma to affect our current and future realities.
Toni’s gift is to be able to express the often laughable ways that we as people trap ourselves into lives of worry, fear and stress- and then to invite us to see these behaviours in our own lives, rather than only in each other’s.
