Nearly 50% of Brave Starts members are men and, in this series, we invite men to come together to talk about some of the challenges involved in making a career change.

In previous sessions, part of the value has simply been in there being a ‘space’ to talk about these challenges. In this session, we’ve invited Matt Grisedale, who will spend some time giving an overview of his own struggle and some of the strategies he’s put in place which have helped him get to a much stronger place.

With all of our sessions, we’ll have time for breakouts, as part of the goal is to get you meeting and building stronger connections.
