B8TS In The Workplace

Welcome to the B8TS Corporate Online Series - a transformative sequence of Virtual Safe Spaces and Virtual Brave Spaces designed to provide supportive, reflective environments for professionals. These sessions are grounded in therapeutic principles and adapted for workplace wellbeing, emotional exploration, and personal development.

Each session acts as a virtual space to talk, be heard, reflect, and grow, designed especially for men navigating the pressures of professional and personal life. Whether you're dealing with workplace challenges, managing your mental health, or simply seeking a space to breathe and be yourself - you belong here.

💬 Session Format

Each session is structured into two intentional halves:

1. Open Circle
   A confidential, non-judgmental space where participants respond to prompts and share what’s on their minds.

Prompts include:

• "What’s on your mind?"
• "What is challenging you right now?"
• "What are you waking up thinking about?"
• "What are you going to sleep thinking about?"

1. Themed Discussion
   A guided conversation around a central topic designed to support personal and professional growth. Themes are drawn from current trends in emotional wellbeing, workplace culture, and leadership development.

🔖 Session Categories

Each session will be labelled accordingly:

• Virtual Safe Space: Focused on vulnerability, self-expression, and emotional processing in a supportive environment.
• Virtual Brave Space: Designed for active discussion, challenge, and growth around topics like accountability, leadership, and resilience.

Please refer to the session title for correct categorisation.
