Mutual Respect Network Seminar
The Educational Wounds: Understanding their impact on learning and relationships
Online
Wednesday 11th November 2026
6.00pm to 8.30pm (UK Time)
Presenter: Cat Cornthwaite PTSTA(E)
What happens when our experiences of education leave us believing we are not “good enough”, and how might those experiences continue to shape the way we learn, teach, lead and relate to others?
This 90-minute seminar invites you to explore the lasting impact of educational experiences and the unconscious beliefs, relational patterns and survival strategies they can create. Together, we will consider the messages we may have absorbed about success, intelligence, behaviour, belonging and worth and how these messages can become embedded in the learning environments we create and participate in.
Drawing on Kirsten Olson’s work on educational wounds, alongside Transactional Analysis, we will explore what it means to create permission-rich learning environments that foster authenticity, curiosity, relational safety and growth.

Expanding the Frame: From Certainty to Curiosity
Online
Wednesday 21st October 6:30 to 9:00pm (UK Time)
Presenter: Jen Finney
PTSTA(P)
We all experience the world through a frame of reference shaped by our beliefs, experiences and assumptions. But what happens when that frame becomes too narrow?
In this experiential 90-minute workshop, we’ll explore how script, ego states, contamination and discounting can shape our perceptions and responses. Through practical exercises and reflection, we’ll move from certainty to curiosity, exploring what else might be true and what we may be discounting.
Expanding our frame isn’t about abandoning our experience or finding a more positive perspective. It’s about creating greater awareness, choice and autonomy in how we understand ourselves, others and the world around us.
