Calling all educators ready to stop pushing through, and start choosing you!

Day one

Once payment is made, you will receive an email to set up your account in Practice Better my secure and GDPR/HIPPA-compliant client platform - which is where the community, course materials, any other membership resources and group chat will live.

You can access the Practice Better platform in your browser (it works best in up-to-date versions of Google Chrome, Safari, Firefox or Microsoft Edge). You might also like to download the app from Google Play or the Apple App Store.

The only other thing to do, if you like, is pop into the ⚖️ Realistic Self-Care Collective ⚖️ Community inside Practice Better and introduce yourself in the chat. We'd love to meet you!

You'll get a couple of emails about next steps over the following week or so, but there's no pressure. Take as long as you need to settle in - and reach out if you need any help with that.

The schedule for the coming weeks of live calls will be listed when you log in to the ⚖️ Realistic Self-Care Collective ⚖️ Community on Practice Better.

All calls will be scheduled in Practice Better, and as a community member you will automatically be registered for all of them.

You will be sent reminder emails 24 hours before and 1 hour before each session, including the Zoom link to access the meeting.

You will find some group guidelines in your 'Start Here' module, to outline some aspects of how the sessions will run - for example confidentiality. The guidelines are always up for discussion if there is anything you would like to comment on, question or add.

Coaching Calls

In our group / hot-seat coaching calls, we will explore and apply my simple Signpost, Explore, Adapt, Sustain® framework to whichever pillars of health you are currently working on - supporting all members in finding their personal next steps in terms of lifestyle and dietary changes.

I will always respond to the needs of the group attending the call live.

When challenges arise, the group and I will be there to help you work out what you want to do next, and how.

We will help you to embrace your successes and your strengths - because I promise you already have both, even if you can't currently see them - and you'll have many more by the time you've hung out in the club for a while!

Change is not always easy, but we can plan to make it as simple as possible.

The calls will vary between a group coaching format (if we have a smaller group present live - where all present will be offered an opportunity to contribute to the discussion if they wish) and a hot-seat coaching format (for larger groups - where you can raise your hand to be coached on a particular issue).

Either are valuable, whether you're talking through your particular situation, or listening and thinking.

Our twice monthly Community Calls are the place to come if you could use a little company to cheer you on while you get stuff done. 

If you have trouble carving out the time to act on your plans - bring them to a Community Call and we'll hang out with you online while you make some progress.

For example you might...

...take some time to think / write about where you are right now, and what needs tweaking

...do some online shopping for supplies for your next experiment

...actually do your physio exercises

...organise a kitchen cupboard

...take us for a walk

...write a note to a friend

...do a little cooking

...catch up on a mini-module from the 🌟 Foundations of Self-Care 🌟 course

I hope this helps to illustrate that your options really are pretty much endless.

We're not on camera the whole time, though you can get my attention whenever you like.

You have two options:

OPTION 1 - MONTHLY - £47 per month

OPTION 2 - ANNUAL - £469 per year (saving £95)

The annual plan is the best value as you get two whole months free, working out at under £1.30 a day 🤯 

Doors will open in spring 2026.

For this first round of enrolment only - there will be a special discounted Founder Members rate available, which will be locked in for the life of your membership🔒

Founder Members pay just £37per month (a whole 20% off!)

What's more, you can stack that with the annual discount of two free months to pay just £369 for a full year in the Collective - bringing your investment down to just £1.01 a day🤯 

Don't forget to join the waitlist to be the first to know when doors open at the special discounted Founders rate.

I hear you! Modern life is bananas, and we’re all tangled up in never-ending to-do lists - especially you education peeps. I’ve got you! 

Part of our group coaching sessions will be helping to identify where the things we want to do can fit into our daily lives.

There are always places we can tweak, or carve out just a few minutes. Part of the benefit of talking through this stuff with someone else is the shift in perspective. 

It can bring to light windows of opportunity we might never have noticed on our own.

And on top of that we have our Community Calls, where you can show up to get the actual stuff that's going to help you feel better done in real time!

Doing something just for you is scary, I get it.

It feels indulgent to set aside time, and money, to invest in your health.

Allow me to suggest, with love, that running yourself into the ground isn’t actually helping anyone.

More than that, those people whose needs you tend to put above yours? They’d probably prefer hanging out with a version of you that feels a little more sparkly ✨

Whether you're ready to buy in to this line of thinking yourself yet or not, because I know it can be a tough sell, I wholeheartedly believe that you are worthy of care, compassion and love just for being you - not just to hold everything together so you can be there for them.

Truthfully, it's not 'selfish' to pay some attention to your own needs, it's 100% necessary - and it's time.

First of all - you are far from alone in that boat 🚢

You’ve tried so many times, I know - we all have! You’re not the problem. 

The issue is with how ‘quick fix’ marketing makes us think this ought to work. 

That’s where skilled support based on actual behaviour change science can be a game changer!

You absolutely are capable of building the healthier life you want.

You’ve just been trying to muscle through making changes with unrealistic expectations (given to us all by the magic of advertising), and without the right kind of help - until now 😉

The call times will vary slightly, but will obviously always fall outside school hours. 

I do have an international client base and am always doing my best to accommodate any time zone jiggery pokery (see the next question if this is you) - but in the interests of transparency, the needs of UK-based educators will take priority when it comes to scheduling for this community. 

Having said that, the current plan is to have live calls at approximately 6-7pm UK time on a weeknight (one Coaching and one Community call a month), or 9-10am UK time on a weekend (one Coaching and one Community Call a month).

Most weeknight calls will fall on Tuesdays, Wednesdays or Thursdays. Weekend calls will vary between Saturday and Sunday.

If you are unable to attend any live call, that's absolutely fine - and there's definitely no expectation that you'll be there for everything (see the 'pick & mix' question above).

If you would like to participate in a Coaching Call that you can't make, questions can be submitted in advance, and audio replays of all Coaching Calls will be available.

I do have an international client base and will always do my best to accommodate the widest possible range of time zones - though as I mentioned in the above answer about call times, the needs of UK-based educators will take priority when it comes to scheduling for this community. 

Having said that, I don’t do late nights (self-care in action 😉). 

So if you are west of the UK, (i.e behind the UK in time-zone terms), we will likely be meeting in the earlier part of your day - since late afternoon-evening in that part of the world is generally past my bedtime.

This might make it tricky as weeknight calls will often land within school hours for you, and weekend calls will likely be unreasonably early - though it obviously depends on your working schedule.

If you're to the east of the UK (i.e. ahead of UK time), a lot of continental Europe is generally easy to accommodate as the time differences are not huge, though we would likely be looking at the later part of your evening.

Further to the east we are likely to generally also be looking at the later part of your evening, depending on exactly where you are.

As mentioned in the call times answer, there will be at least one coaching call a month on a weekend - and there are also messaging office hours for asynchronous support if you're struggling to make the live calls.

Feel free to drop me a line (contact@beccabenning.com) if you have specific concerns or questions on this front.

You absolutely can join 💚🤗Autoimmune Health Club🤗💚 instead if you like, depending on what your current priorities are.

It is also possible to bundle the two memberships together for a discounted price (£75 per month), as the 🌟 Foundations of Self-Care 🌟 course is the same for both.

You would then have access to the course, both communities, and four Coaching Calls and four Community Calls a month to choose from, though one of each call type every month in 💚Autoimmune Health Club🤗💚 will likely fall within school hours.

As always, recordings will be available for any Coaching Calls you are unable to make live.

Feel free to drop me a line (contact@beccabenning.com) if you're not sure which is best, and I can help you work it out.

This is an exciting part of my plan!

I'm really keen to support education-related charities with ongoing donations as part of this membership model.

So the donation is taken out of my end, and comes at no extra cost to members.

Whether you choose a monthly or an annual plan, £5 per month will be donated to Education Support.

If you're not familiar with Education Support, they are an education-focussed charity who do amazing work - both campaigning for the large scale change we all know is needed, and providing brilliant resources for educators, including their wonderful helpline.
