"What was for me the most exciting part of Tia's make up was her focus on supporting teams with insights into how they could enhance and improve their wellbeing, mental health and life balance. She openly brought in her her own life experiences and demonstrated how people could benefit from these stories and unblock challenges they might have."
Lee Hawkins, Professional Coach & Mentor
"Tia is a great public speaker, she connects effortlessly with her audience and speaks with purposefulness yet she is always very simple and authentic in her approach. Since the very first meeting I had with Tia I realised she is such a great people person, always dedicated to give time and attention, very knowledgeable and smart."
Ilaria Nizzoli, Senior Content Manager, EMAP
"Tia managed to disrupt a disruption conference. When someone tells to a hall full of digital people to drop their phones and go to a walk, you know that is going to be a great presentation. Refreshing perspective, many insights!"
Daniel Corneanu, Senior Digital Planner at Wavemaker
"One of the best active listeners I’ve ever met and someone who firmly believes that developing her team’s careers and empowering people to do work they are proud of is just as important as solving complex business problems."
Adrian Lee, SVP Marketing, SCMP
"Forward thinking and creative in her approach! Having participated at one of her mindfulness workshops, I was highly impressed by her ability to engage with a large group of people. Within a short amount of time, she was able to give attendees techniques to improve their mental wellbeing."
Adam Kosky, Strategic Partnerships at yulife
"I have always been impressed by her ability not only to command the stage and deliver messages with complete certainly, but by her ability to understand context: that includes both the audience but also the journey her audience are taking; where they are going and most crucially where they want to be."
Gos Chagula, Investors & Start-up Advisor
"Tia = Energy! She makes you join one of her creativity sessions by curiosity and you come out with unlimited inspiration, genuine ideas and plans and with the enthusiasm and tools to make them happen. Tia’s workshops are the best way to combine the intelligence of the mind with the intelligence of the heart."
Oana Georgescu, founder A L’EST DE PARIS
"Tia inspired me to go places. If it hadn’t been for Tia I wouldn’t be where I am now. If you’d like to go places and something is stopping you, have a word with Tia..."
David Marks, Freelance Teacher
"As an archetypal Rugby playing media geezer, I was a little bit skeptical about a Friday morning Meditation workshop... but Tia put all my cynicism away: it was not only fun and insightful, but also incredibly useful. So pack away your cynicism and enjoy!"
Nick Philips, Senior Sales Manager, Reuters
"I just attended your Wellness talk on Resilience (I was your heart rate guinea pig) - just to say Thank You, that was a really useful session!"
Perry Goodbody, EA, Dentsu
"I found the Resilience Factor talk by Tia Castagno EXTREMELY useful. The fact that meditation techniques are backed up by scientific research makes it all more appealing, and seeing a live demonstration also convinced me that I need to take care of my emotional, mental, spiritual health on top of my physical health even more."
