Hi, I’m Brinny (they/them)
I'm an AuDHD, non-binary facilitator, consultant, coach and speaker.
My work sits at the intersection of wellbeing, inclusion, participation and psychological safety - helping people and organisations create environments where humans can function, connect and contribute more sustainably.
Across workplaces, community spaces and movement settings, I combine lived experience with practical approaches that help people feel more supported in themselves and the environments around them.
Whether I'm coaching someone one-to-one, facilitating a workshop, or supporting organisational change, the focus stays the same:
Helping people feel more at home in themselves and the spaces they move through.
I spent the first decade of my career working in journalism and media as a Producer and Journalist for organisations including the BBC and The Guardian.
On paper, things looked successful.
But behind the scenes, I was burnt out, overwhelmed and navigating a world that I didn't yet realise wasn't built for my brain or nervous system.
Being diagnosed as AuDHD and coming out as non-binary helped me make sense of experiences I'd spent years trying to explain away.
It also changed how I understood wellbeing.
I realised that the biggest barrier to participation often isn't motivation, discipline or mindset.
It's whether people feel safe, supported and able to participate as themselves.
That realisation changed the direction of my work completely.
My Background
My Approach
Over time, one principle kept showing up in everything I did - with individuals, teams and communities:
Regulation Before Reps
When people feel overwhelmed, overstimulated or psychologically unsafe, participation becomes harder.
Communication becomes harder.
Learning becomes harder.
Connection becomes harder.
So rather than expecting people to constantly adapt themselves to systems, I focus on helping create environments that are
Sensory-aware
Accessible
Adaptable
Human-first
Whether that's:
A workplace workshop
A leadership conversation
A coaching session
A Queer Strength Club event
A community wellbeing space
The goal is always the same:
To reduce friction, increase safety and help people engage more sustainably.
I work across:
Workshops & facilitation
Speaking & panels
Neuro-inclusive consultancy
Community wellbeing spaces
Inclusive movement & coaching
I've delivered work for organisations including Calm, Champion Health, CEDEP, Not A Phase, GOSH Charity and community spaces across the UK.
What I Do
What Matters To Me
I care about building spaces where:
People don't have to mask to participate
Sessions meet people where they are
Wellbeing feels practical, not performative
Systems are designed around humans, not just productivity
People can find comfort in the spaces they're in
Movement feels supportive, not punishing
Joy, rest and regulation are treated as important things, not rewards people have to earn
Because things can be built differently.
And I know that because I've lived it.
