Journaling has been an important part of Sanctus since the beginning. Some of us grew up as angsty teenagers scribbling our daily thoughts into Moleskine notebooks. The Sanctus story actually started in a blog post that was pretty much an open journal entry. It’s a practice many of our Coaches recommend to the people they...

The first time I heard of Sanctus I was working in recruitment. I had a full head of hair and no beard. Precisely the opposite of how you find me today. It was either 2016 or 2017. I can’t remember exactly when or what it was specifically but it would’ve been the messaging at the...

Since March 2020 I feel like I’ve lived in almost constant uncertainty.  My world was spinning comfortably on its axis and then a global health pandemic completely knocked it off, since then my world has been rolling around, lost.  Life as I knew it vanished and a new life emerged. There was the stress, uncertainty...

Hi, I’m Bob, Sanctus’s Chairman. I joined Sanctus this summer because I wanted to get involved with something that really matters to business and society. Coaching does that – and Sanctus is, in my newly biased opinion, seriously good at it. Coaching comes in many forms. I’m no expert but I’ve had cause to benefit...

I am in the queue at my local off licence eavesdropping on the woman in front of me who, apparently not for the first time this week, is there to top up her gas. How much she pays goes up every week, and this week is about twice what it was the week before. The...

We spend an awful lot of time at work. Most of us, the bulk of our waking hours. And when we’re happy there, chances are we’ll be happy in other areas of our lives too.
