Blanka Falk welcomes Rosemary Gattuso who has been in alternate dispute resolution for over 15 years, specialising in family mediation and restorative justice practices.

Merging her experience as a family mediator with her study of neuroscience and trauma, she explores ways to live in a trauma-informed and strengths-based way, which is the subject of her first book.

As a chronic over-thinker, Rosemary experienced first-hand the transformative impact of rewriting overthinking into strengths reflection and is committed to sharing this with the world. She emphasizes the role of intuition and learning from mistakes, as well as sensitivity and awareness in children, offering advice for parents.
