Courageous Curiosity are a joyful collaboration between three experienced, inspirational healthcare leaders, who are coaches and trainers certified by One of Many™.

Grounded in lived experience across the landscape of the NHS, our purpose is to nurture, guide and harness the unique energy of women in healthcare, like you.

Courageous Curiosity workshops are more than an experience, they are a remembering, a reimagining, a re-turning, to the wisdom of what we already know: 

That change begins with us. And it happens together.

If you've ever led all day and felt strangely alone while doing it - surrounded by people, short on real connection - you're exactly who this was built for.

Last year, a room full of women in healthcare leadership found their guiding principles, dropped anchor into who they really are, and left lighter than they arrived.

"I feel more at ease knowing I'm not alone."

Uniquely designed for women in healthcare who know in their heart that the current ‘business-as-usual’ is no longer working.

Women who are ready to explore a more compassionate, synergistic, and sustainable way of leading.

Together, we will nurture our inner wisdom, and co-create a collaborative, that turns the tide towards a new paradigm.

The healthcare system often feels heavy, isolating, hierarchical, and reactive. As women leaders, we often have to be strong for everyone else yet push through on our own.

Despite these challenges, we continue to deliver high-quality, compassionate care every day.  Our dedication to people and outcomes never wavering, even as the system itself demands more and more from us.

You are not alone and you are not wrong for wanting more. There is another way.
