006: Helen Stevenson of New Attitudes
Helen Stevenson is a light in the darkness - both for herself and for others. From navigating an extreme and unexpected change in her life, New Attitudes was born in true phoenix-from-ashes style.
Through New Attitudes, Helen focuses on awareness and mindset as well as attitude. She supports others to personalize their own toolkit for navigating life’s challenges. May her wit and wisdom (and Builder’s Tea) be of benefit.

Quotable Helen Stevenson
“My private mantra is, ‘Control the controllables.’ When I start to feel overwhelmed, ‘What can I do.’ Not ‘What can’t I do,’ not what I wish I could do, but what is in my influence.”
“When I was a carer, I thought, ‘Oh, I’m coping.’ And when my children left, I thought, ‘Oh, I’m coping.’ But there was an awful lot of clinging to the roles that I had. And I think as women, we very often do that.”
“Sometimes, when we have support groups we keep each other in... a hamster wheel. It can bring us back to those feelings and so on.”
