Thank you - it was a great day! 😃
Fantastic day at @uniofleicester hearing from @ucas_online, @drdomthompson, about psychology & psychiatry, medicine, student finance, supporting parents and carers, and more! Lovely and local too! ❤️
Well this is lovely ☺️👇 thank you!
A brilliant morning so far at @uniofleicester T&A day, including a SUPERB talk from @drdomthompson. I was fortunate to hear her at UCAS Conf a few years ago and have shared her TED talk annually with Year 13 parents ever since. Inspirational! ❤️

Meaning may be healthier than happiness.
23-year study: A sense of purpose is a more robust predictor of longevity than life satisfaction. Having worthwhile goals is a source of vitality.
It’s nice to feel happy today. It’s important to have something to strive for tomorrow.

A complex topic- thank you for asking me to share some thoughts. Compassionate Postvention is crucial.
Psychological care offered after a death is known as “postvention.” It’s what the University of Toronto should have given its students after a string of suicides on campus. Instead, they were abandoned. Journalists @jadinengan and @tryingtotype explore: thewalrus.ca/death-on-campus…
Yup. I know that look from my French mamie anytime I asked for an ice cream before dinner when I was little 😂
