Taught by Jenny Steadman

MBA, Grad Cert HR, Grad Dip HR, Grad Cert Project Management, Diploma of Mindfulness and Compassion, IECL Level 2

Jenny is an experienced trauma-informed mindfulness facilitator having taught in both community and organisational settings. In her community-based work, she facilitates public MBSR courses, while her organisational work spans small not-for-profits to large multinationals and government departments. Her background in learning and development, organisational coaching, and change management informs how she creates psychologically safe, inclusive learning environments where people feel genuinely welcomed and supported in their exploration.

She has a longstanding personal mindfulness practice spanning decades and prioritises psychological safety and meeting people exactly where they are. She continues to be moved by witnessing people find calm amidst the turbulence of life, not because everything becomes easy, but because they've learned to meet themselves and their experience with greater kindness and clarity.
