“Amazed and humbled by Lucy Hone – what a gift she is giving in sharing her grief.”

Miriama Kamo, TVNZ Sunday

Lucy came to Meridian and delivered two hour-long sessions to our people. The sessions were extremely insightful and it was a truly rewarding experience to listen to Lucy. Her down to earth delivery of such an important subject is something to be listened to. We will be continuing to use Lucy at Meridian as an important part of our Healthy Minds Programme.

I have worked with a combination of Lucy and Denise with small and large groups and across a range of all staff levels. They are highly competent, researched based, articulate and have the capability to appropriately adjust any session to meet the needs of the audience while still fulfilling the course objectives. Staff feedback from sessions has been highly commendable and has ignited further conversations along with personal and professional growth. Their intellect, sense of fun and ability to engage an audience (individually and collectively) adds real value and alignment with what the company also needs to achieve.

Lucy is an incredibly engaging speaker. I really appreciate the openness and warmth that she shows and the fact that her content is based on solid research as well as personal experience.

Martin Galpin, Director of Work Positive

Dr Lucy Hone delivered highly informative information in a toolkit style where each individual could take what they wanted, and apply strategies to their specific needs no matter what age, stage or background. Lucy kept the content highly relevant through her own experience which ensured attendees engagement throughout the workshops. The feedback from attendees in all cases was extremely positive.

Hearing Lucy talk about resilience and her story of testing her learnings was a true privilege. Her words were incredibly impactful, and her insights were all driven by her genuine desire to help people tap into this way of thinking to drastically improve their lives.

Denise Quinlan, with broad international training, is an experienced and highly motivated positive psychology researcher and wellbeing change leader who is clearly destined to make a difference.

George Vaillant MD, Professor of Psychiatry, Harvard Medical School and Co-founder of Positive Psychology, University of Pennsylvania.

The buzz in the air following her talk is a testament to the power of her messages; that even in a short amount of time, Lucy’s insights inspire a momentum of meaningful connection and conversation. I could hear people connecting through shared vulnerabilities, shared hopes and fears for the future, and admitting their own habits they could change.
