About PeopleActiv

PeopleActiv is owned and managed by Frances and Stephen Light. We genuinely love and care about people and focus on helping them see their Light. We live courageously with the guiding principle of: "How may I serve." We strive to live this in every interaction we have. Our guiding philosophy is, “All meaningful and lasting change starts first on the inside and works its way out” – Anon. We recognise that the path to greatness and a great life is an internal journey, one we have taken and one we are continuously on.

We are passionate about living our purpose which is to serve others by assisting them to find their reason for being. We assist people in leading fulfilling lives through finding balance in their lives, realising their potential and finding their greatness, their most fulfilling life. In doing so we are also able to fulfill our potential. We believe that all people are beautiful souls with infinite potential and that it is our limiting learned behaviours which do not serve us in living the life we dream of.

People have to be responsible for their lives in order to choose differently and make changes. We have been conditioned to blaming others and the world around us for the circumstances of our lives and to take responsibility for our behaviours is a foreign concept, especially when others are behaving poorly. It truly is easier to blame them for our feelings and reactions. PeopleActiv teaches people to understand what is going on inside of them when confronted with these situations and to make different choices versus reactive responses. When people understand and embrace change at this level, their journey to greatness has begun. They start finding themselves being more confident about who they are and what they bring to the relationship. Their relationship with themselves improves and so they are able to give a lot more to others.

One of the main challenges we hear people struggle with in the business world is dealing with other people. Businesses have objectives to meet and deliverables to achieve. Companies and Institutions’ want results, we acknowledge this. We also acknowledge that business is done between people and the best kind of business is done when people have healthy relationships. The truth is: I cannot fully give to relationships if I do not feel good about myself. Businesses succeed because of people so relationships (internal and external) become crucial. If people cannot get along with each other or cannot communicate effectively with each other, the end result is that the business suffers. PeopleActiv uses this as a basis for behavioural change. If you want results, care about yourself and your people. Teach your people to care about themselves and they will start caring about others. The business results will come. It is therefore hugely important that people are able to communicate and deal with themselves and each other in an effective manner.

PeopleActiv workshops focus on an Inside/out approach. We help people understand who they are when they interact with people and how they could improve their approach in order to create fulfilling and meaningful interactions for both parties. We recognise that in order for people to show up in relationships with the intent of growth, caring and support (win-win), they need to understand themselves better. This is the internal journey to greatness. PeopleActiv provides a safe environment for people to dream where they could be, to acknowledge where they are and we assist them in identifying and changing those behaviours that prevent them from realising their greatness. Our workshops impart the necessary skills for building great relationships through being confident, being assertive, communicating effectively, managing emotions and dealing with conflict for growth. We teach people how to manage themselves and others on a deeper level, the level at which relationships live. These skills are shared in the context of an internal shift from blame to Choice and Responsibility.

Our facilitation methodology is interactive and experiential. We remove all barriers to learning and create trusting environments for sharing. We know people learn and retain information best when it has personal meaning to them. This is the key to sustained behavioural change. Our workshops are true facilitation and our approach is asking the right questions - people have the answers to their destiny through Self-Awareness, Choices and Responsibility.

Our workshops include:

Coaching for creating sustained behavioural change

PeopleActiv have certified Professional Co-Active coaches who are registered and accredited with the Coaches Training Institute based in Los Angeles. This is a global organisation that creates and supports a network of co-active coaches operating in the space of change through self awareness. We connect with people and connect them to their true self. When in this space the power to create change in their lives comes from the biggest part of who they are. Co-Active coaching holds people naturally creative, resourceful and whole and allows them to explore and tap into their true potential. Coaching is the space that takes the workshop concepts and makes them real and practical in people’s lives, it is the vehicle for creating sustainable behavioural change, if people are willing to change.

All meaningful and lasting change starts first on the inside and works its way out
