This Started With Theo—but It’s Bigger Than That!
Our kids are going to grow up lonelier, more anxious, and less sure of themselves than we are— in this digital world where real connection is harder than ever to find,
and AI is replacing jobs faster than we can keep up.
Honestly? It terrifies me.
I took Theo out of school so I could change his education.
What I found honestly outraged me.
There are endless resources for adults—on confidence, emotional wellbeing, communication, life and money smarts—
but almost nothing for children aged six to sixteen,
unless it’s soulless, surface-level animation.
It hit me with anger so hard that I cried.
How are we leaving kids out?
Surely this is where education on these things should start—
so they come naturally by the time they're adults.
Schools focus so much on grades…
but not on the skills that actually shape a happy, capable human being—
like emotional strength, boundaries, and independent thinking.
Whether we like it or not, the world is shifting—
and I don’t want my child just surviving.
I want him thriving.
So What's The Answer?
You’re exhausted.
Parents are working harder and juggling more than ever.
Not everyone can quit their jobs or work from home to homeschool.
We still need our system running.
So I’ve done something big—
I’ve walked away from the business I spent twelve years building,
to pour my heart and soul into For Theo’s Sake.
A platform filled with real-life skills, emotional intelligence,
and content that actually speaks directly to your child—
through videos teaching them all the things I’m teaching Theo.
* How to believe in themselves.
* How to recognise their feelings and deal with worry and anxiety.
* How to manage their time, build strong friendships,
set boundaries, speak up, listen, lead,
and make smart decisions about themselves, others, and the world around them.
* And how to understand how money really works—including earning, saving, and using it wisely.
I want to be able to give this for free—because no child should be left behind.
This isn’t just a project. It’s personal.
It’s built from a place of heart,
wisdom through really tough times,
and a burning deep belief that our kids deserve so much more.
I lost my mum just before I found out I was pregnant with Theo.
Last week was her birthday.
So I’m launching For Theo’s Sake YouTube channel in her honour—
one video a day until Mother’s Day.
If she were here today, she would be my biggest supporter.
So I’m asking—if you could do this for her, in her honour,
as well as for the kids who deserve to know how to manage feelings,
speak up, trust themselves,
and understand the world they’re growing into…
And if you feel that too—if this matters to you—then you’re part of this.
And just maybe… if we make enough noise,
we can get these lessons into schools—where they should have been all along.
Every comment, like, subscribe, share, every donation or purchase—
it all helps support the mission and move it one step closer to reaching the children who need it most.
You’re not just watching.
You’re helping change what the next generation gets to grow up knowing.
Somehow, this has become the most important thing we have done.
If you'd like to be part of it you can support us here.

There are no wrong answers—just gentle ways to get their brains ticking and finding solutions
Theo is my ultimate test subject—if he’s not engaged, I tweak it!
He’s thoughtful, funny, and way too smart for his own good,
and every resource has to pass the ultimate test: The Theo Tick of Approval™.
He’s growing with this project too.
The other day, I was teaching him how to design some of the worksheets.
He’s not just the reason I started this—
he’s becoming part of it, every step of the way. 💛
