About Talks
The team have spoken to over 15,000 people in the last year
alone. The feedback into the office has been very moving, and we have had so many comments; but here are just a few:
“I just wanted to say how amazing Kintsugi Hope is...
I went to your first conference at Skylark Church... it was
amazing... I have hidden and avoided my friends for years...
because I didn't know it was OK to not be OK! That image of
the pottery fixed with gold changed me... I realized my
brokenness is beautiful... and has made me who I am.”
“My Uncle attended all of your talks and came out
of the week with a new insight into himself. I attended your
perfectionism talk and your talk at the main event on
Wednesday evening. It was a revelation! I am so grateful to
you for the lifting of my guilt and shame over my many issues
that have dogged at my heels for so many years, both physical
and mental health issues that I have always seen as a barrier
to my life rather than a new way to live in my life. You
reduced me to tears in a very good way.”
“Having been struggling with a few issues
recently, I sat through your Tackling Anxiety talk with
tears trickling down my face. It was a release at the
realization that I'm not going mad, I just have anxiety
issues. Once we know these things, we can deal with it and
move forward.”
As well as touring the country and raising awareness through
talks and speaking, Patrick and his team have contributed to
over 30 radio interviews, written articles on
subjects such as removing stigma, coping with grief, honesty
and vulnerability, etc, in blogs and newspaper such as The
Times, Sorted Magazine, Youthwork Magazine and many others.
