I wrote Gus the Ghost because so many of us grew up being told to “be brave”… but not how.

We learned to mask, to rush past feelings, to hold everything in until it spilled out.

Gus reminds children (and adults) that bravery isn’t about pretending we’re not scared — it’s about pausing long enough to notice what’s happening inside, and choosing kindness anyway.

That’s what emotional intelligence really is. Not perfection — just awareness, compassion, and growth. 💙

We picture burnout as a dramatic collapse. In reality, it starts with quiet self‑censorship. Psychological safety—not perks—prevents burnout. Use the SENSE Framework to spot early signals and build resilient, high‑performing teams.

A practical, psychology‑led framework that turns “warm data” into everyday routines. See how AmbiSense reduces incidents, lifts trust, and prevents burnout across schools, organisations, and families in as little as 2–6 weeks.
