Make a Positive Impact On and Off Site
Mental fitness isn’t just good for you - it’s good for your crew. When you show up with a clearer head and stronger mindset, it sets the tone for your whole team.
After completing the course:
- Start kōrero with your mates about what you’ve learned.
- Share tips or small changes you’ve made (like your new sleep routine or mindfulness hack).
- Be the one who makes checking in on others normal - not awkward.
- Encourage others to take the course too.
This is how we change the culture - together.
