2 days at Health and Wellbeing at Work Expo at The NEC and 2 things are clear:

1. Workplace mental health is a reality organisations are dealing with every day.

2. If we want healthier workplaces, we need better psychological understanding of stress, pressure and how people actually function at work.

Now for the breakdown….
(Stand. Not me!)

Day 1 done at the Health and Wellbeing at Work Expo at the NEC today.

Lots of really interesting conversations today with people genuinely trying to work out how to better support their teams.

What stood out most is that across different industries, many organisations are facing the same challenges: stress, burnout and people feeling overwhelmed at work.

Encouraging to see how many businesses are taking workplace mental health seriously and looking for practical ways to support their staff.

Looking forward to more conversations tomorrow.

The reality of running a small business.
Before.
During.
After.

People often see the finished stand, the talk, the workshop.

They don’t see the packing, the driving, the lifting, the setting up… and the many times you step back and hope it all comes together!!!

Today I’m setting up at the NEC for the Health and Wellbeing at Work show…If you’re here, come and say hello! Stand 145

And if you run your own business… you’ll be able to relate to the photos below!

Next week I’ll be exhibiting at the Health & Wellbeing at Work 2026 at the NEC

Throughout the day on my Stand 145, I’ll be running short, informal talks on the nervous system and workplace wellbeing.

In these 10–15 minute stand talks, I’ll explore:

• Why stress responses show up the way they do at work
• What “fight, flight, freeze” actually looks like in teams and leadership
• Practical ways organisations can support nervous system regulation
• Why understanding this can transform performance, culture, and wellbeing

These talks are free to attend, informal, and designed for leaders, HR professionals, and anyone responsible for workplace wellbeing.

📍 Stand 145
🎤 Short talks running throughout the day

If you’re attending, come and join me for a powerful conversation about what’s really happening beneath workplace stress.

I’d love to meet you!

My son went to school as Darth Vader for World Book Day.

Darth Vader might actually be one of the best case studies in psychology. (Bare with me I'm a psychotherapist!)

Darth Vader:
A talented young person.
Huge expectations.
Fear of loss.
No safe space to process emotions.
A nervous system constantly pushed into fight mode.
And eventually… the dark side.

It’s easy to label behaviour as “difficult”, “aggressive”, or “unreasonable”.
But psychology teaches us to ask a better question:

What’s happening underneath?

Because behind most behaviour is a nervous system trying to cope with pressure, fear, or overwhelm.

This is just as true in the workplace as it is in the Star Wars universe.

Anyway… I’m off to reason with a small Sith Lord...
Never underestimate the power of understanding the story behind the behaviour.

What an honour it was to be invited as a business panel speaker at this year’s International Women’s Day event in Oxford.

To share a platform with leaders across sport, business and community and alongside Naomi Bedeau, Captain of Oxford United Women felt incredibly special.

Speaking about confidence, pressure and impostor syndrome in a
room full of ambitious, capable women was a real privilege.
These conversations matter. So many high-achieving women carry doubt quietly and creating spaces where we can normalise that experience, and move beyond it, is powerful.

Business, sport and community coming together under the theme Give to Gain.

When we share our stories honestly the pressure, the setbacks, the courage we don’t just inspire we expand what feels possible for others.

Grateful to have been part of it.

Valentine’s Day gets all the attention, but the real star is oxytocin.

It’s the hormone released through connection, a hug, good conversation, feeling genuinely seen. It’s less about romance and more about closeness.

No big gestures required.
Just real connection.

Where are you getting your oxytocin from today?

A professional milestone for Rebecca Lisi Therapy.

I’ve been accepted as a member of The CPD Certification Service, and I am now in the process of certifying my training programmes.

Over the past year, my work has evolved.
What began as delivering impactful workshops has grown into structured, psychology-led performance training for organisations who want more than surface-level wellbeing initiatives.

CPD certification is about rigour.
Clear learning objectives.
Measurable outcomes.
Professional accountability.

For HR leaders and business owners investing in development, it offers reassurance that training is not just engaging, but professionally recognised.

This is part of a bigger shift for me, strengthening the consultancy arm of my work while maintaining the depth that comes from over a decade as a psychotherapist.

If you're reviewing your 2026 training strategy and want evidence-based, CPD-aligned programmes, I’d welcome a conversation.
