Breathing space for a different kind of conversation
For last year’s words belong to last year’s language and next year’s words await another voice.
+ T S Eliot, from Little Giddings
Teams and groups
Creating space for good conversations enables us to really hear ourselves and each other. And in that encounter, we create something new, together.
It’s more than the sum of the parts, and the creative approaches we use powerfully brings this to life.
We host and facilitate off-site conversations that help you explore where you are and where you want to go, digging deep into knotty problems and germinating possibilities, especially for people who want to make good trouble.
And we can do this here at The Waterside, where you are, or online. Book a time for us to talk, or send me an email.
Clients have included: national arts organisations, charities and not-for-profits, purpose-led businesses, and academic collaborations. They often come to us when they need help crossing a threshold, making decisions at a pivot point or preparing for a transition.
Compassionate of heart,
Clear in word,
Gracious in awareness,
Courageous in thought,
Generous in love.
+ John O’Donohue, from Matins
Individuals
Choosing to take another path and inspiring transformation can be draining. And sometimes, we lose ourselves and our way.
Having walked this road, I know a little of what it feels like and how lonely it can be.
And how sometimes we need someone else to walk with us, ask the difficult questions, and remind us why we are doing this. Someone who can help us step back and make sense of where we are, from a different angle, and then help us to keep walking forward. With clarity, energy and wisdom.
Over the years I have partnered with founders, CEOs and execs, innovators, creatives, clinicians and pioneering academics.
Book a time for us to talk about what you need and explore whether I can help, whether that’s here, where you are, or online.
“I highly recommend Sue Heatherington Sue was part of two by 90-minute conversations with me recently that gave me great clarity. Sue has a knack for asking wonderful questions and really zeroing in on what matters.”

Waterside Conversations
For many years we ran #FirstFridays here at The Waterside until Covid happened…
We now host ad hoc themed conversations at The Waterside (Covid restrictions permitting) and online.
Good Words Gatherings
This is our dream, which we hope will become a reality in the days to come.
Contact us directly if this sparks something in you too.
