I have over 20 years experience training, teaching and mentoring in the personal development field – stress management, maintaining your personal power, goal setting, assertive communication, balancing your lifestyle, presentation skills and many other self-help topics. This history of working in the personal development field has included owning a training business, creating a company focused on professional and personal learning for women, and working in the higher education context. I have a Masters in Adult Education and am currently completing my PhD exploring mentoring practices.

My particular skill areas are one-to-one mentoring and writing personal development articles and books that offer people the “how to” help yourself and achieve what you want in life and be who you are.

Favorite Quotes & Thoughts from Lesley Petersen

Personal Philosophy

It is possible to rely on yourself. This doesn’t mean not asking for or accepting help from others, but rather believing and acknowledging the strengths you have to take care of yourself and enjoy life. This is based on my own values and beliefs of how we can take care of ourselves in the world we live in. I believe everyone has choices.

Feeling happy with who you are is paramount. How to attain, maintain and always feel this way is an individual thing, one that requires ongoing self development, trying out different ways of doing things and discovering (and therefore using) the strategies and tools that support and encourage this positive sense of self.

Business Philosophy

Long-term, quality relationships with customers is at the core of Positively You. Respect for other successful e-businesses and how they manage their business and establishing and maintaining credibility within my field of expertise is also crucial. There is always something and someone to be learning from.

Integrity and honesty are the core of who I am therefore the business I create and run.

How to get started

Positively You is a new website I have created, with the aim to provide information and strategies for people to work on their individual personal development programme.

This information and the various strategies are available via my Free Mini-course 'Creating The Life You Want', my free Newsletter - "Monthly Mag" - my blog where I post regular articles on all sorts of different topics centred around self-help and personal development, and my range of products and services that again aim to help people help themselves and achieve what they want in life.

All of these can be accessed by visiting my website at www.positivelyou.com or e-mailing me at lesley@positivelyou.com
