How can you live a wild and precious life... even on a Monday morning?

OUR STORY
THE SHAPES TOOLKIT
MEET THE TEAM

Wild Monday was founded by Dr Rachel Morris – a former GP who knows what it's like to feel overwhelmed and one crisis away from burnout.

Rachel has a background in medical education and worked at the University of Cambridge, School of Clinical Medicine for several years where she taught General Practice and set up and led the 'Doctor as a Professional' Curriculum. 

Whilst on a retreat in the French Alps, she found herself trying to figure out how to live up to Mary OIiver’s famous poem about living a 'wild and precious life'. Move to the mountains? Live in a remote cabin, wave goodbye to responsibilities, and be free?

Frankly, that just isn’t possible when you’ve got a family, a mortgage, and a career you’ve devoted half your life to.

Rachel found herself wondering how life could feel more wild, and precious, and free…even on a Monday morning, with a busy schedule, in a high-pressure role.

That question led her to develop the Shapes Toolkit - a system of tools that help professionals in high-stakes roles find choice, get inspired and connect to their real, human needs - whilst doing their best work.

Since then, she’s gathered a team of extraordinary trainers and facilitators who share her commitment to helping brilliant people in tough roles unlock their wild, free selves WITHOUT having to leave their careers.

Together we’re creating a movement of professionals rewriting the script for work in high-pressure fields. Click here to find out how we can help you do that.

The Shapes Toolkit is a breakthrough resilience training course for professionals in which we use seven different key productivity, resilience and coaching tools to help managers and their teams take control of their time and workload, increase their wellbeing and change their response to stressful situations and have better conversations.

Each Shape represents a simple model that can be used by individuals as a prompt to help them navigate issues of resilience in the workplace, for example, using the prioritisation matrix when they feel overwhelmed with work. They also provide a way to support people with important one-to-one conversations.

As they are visual and tangible, they provide a way for people to speedily identify a way of thinking that will work for a specific situation.
