Our Team

Hannah Beeko Non Executive Director

I provide corporate training on life skills such as stress management, efficiency, time and energy management as well as life/business success planning.
My mission is to enable as many people as possible to live a life they love.
I founded Authentically Speaking, a training and coaching business in 2016 and I am a certified leadership coach and trainer.
“It all starts with happiness for me. When we take care of our mental health and well-being, we are able to be the very best version of ourselves in our private lives and our business and career. Happiness has a big impact on productivity, effectiveness and profit!”
I have an open, honest and genuine approach which builds trust with people. My style is a mixture of coaching and training which helps people to make positive and lasting change to their life and business to create happiness.

Jane Colbourne Co-facilitator

Jane is a long-COVID survivor and co-facilitator for the Brain Health Breakthrough long-COVID support groups. She is also an events producer, performance poet, and freelance writer on science, nature & culture. She has past experience in complementary therapies, care work and tuition.

Admin Support

We're a small team and although we can get most of the work done in-house, we sometimes seek the help of freelance remote workers.
The virtual assistants we work with are highly qualified and hard working. Their part-time help with website copy, proofreading and formatting documents is integral to the running of Brain Health Breakthrough CIC and they are most certainly a really valued part of the team.
If you are looking for a Virtual Assistant and would like a recommendation, or would like to work with BHB, then please do get in touch with Karen.
