Alice Sheldon will share a fresh approach for finding answers and building positive relationships, which she calls "Needs Understanding". It’s based on one simple but profound idea: we’re all on a quest to meet our underlying human needs – such as belonging, knowing we matter or feeling appreciated. 

This conversation with Dr Mark Williamson was recorded at an Action for Happiness event on 28 September 2022.
