On Monday 16 May, the Chaplaincy Team will be joined by family mental health experts and Southampton alumni, Nick Pollard and Dr Elizabeth McNaught, at the Faith and Reflection Centre on Highfield Campus to talk about ‘The problem of perfect: How to face exams and the future without sacrificing your mental health’.
The father-daughter duo will discuss how we can re-think perfectionism and offer practical tools to thrive under pressure while prioritising your mental health. The tools, tips and resources will be particularly valuable for students’ facing exam and assessments this semester.
About the speakers:
Nick and Elizabeth are co-founders of Family Mental Wealth – an organisation which helps families to build their children’s mental health. Notably, Elizabeth is the author of ‘Life Hurts: A doctor’s personal journey through anorexia’ – a powerful account.
