From Struggle to Strength with Arrowsmith
My journey with the Arrowsmith Program began several years ago at a private school in Charters Towers, Queensland, where I had the privilege of working as an Arrowsmith Teacher. From the first introduction, I recognised something amazing about the Arrowsmith program and how it unlocks people’s potential.
At the end of 2022, with the generous support of the Arrowsmith team in Toronto, I took the step to offer the program independently, a new chapter began, and Master Your Mind evolved. This was the next step in my commitment to bring the Arrowsmith Program to more people and families ready for change, far and wide. I work with many students online in Queensland, the Northern Territory and out west. Being able to access the program online has opened up the opportunity for everyone to access Arrowsmith. Working with a mix of face‑to‑face and online students is a positive experience that brings like‑minded students together, forming happy, supportive relationships. These practices help every student feel connected, valued, and motivated to contribute to their own success.
I’m passionate about this work because I’ve seen its effects up close. Children, teens and adults have achieved things they once thought impossible: real academic progress, stronger emotional resilience, more meaningful social connections, clearer communication, and lasting improvements in focus, self-regulation and motivation. Watching someone move from relying on compensations to thriving on their own strengths is profoundly rewarding.
Arrowsmith is a pathway to possibility. It turns “can’ts” into “cans,” replacing doubt with confidence. With over 40 years of evidence supporting its effectiveness in strengthening cognitive functions, the Arrowsmith program opens doors that many believed were closed, not just helping people improve their cognitive capacity to learn, but to see their full potential.
Taking the first step can feel daunting, but the results are extraordinary. Those who have embraced this journey will tell you the same thing: it changed their life. If you’re curious or ready to explore what’s possible, I’d love to show you how the Arrowsmith Program works and what may benefit you or a family member.
Take the leap, you won’t regret it!
