Who We Are
“Our relationship lives in the space between us – it doesn’t live in me or in you or even in the dialogue between the two of us – it lives in the space we live together and that space is a sacred space.”
Martin Buber.
We believe that mental health is a human right. And yet, it is still so seldom spoken about; it remains an unfamiliar story. As a psychologist-led platform, we know how many people walk this unfamiliar story – and often alone. But nobody should have to struggle in silence anymore. Especially in the spaces where we strive and contribute.
The space where we work together, the space where we connect and collaborate, is a space that holds a profound significance for our mental health.
The simple truth is that human connection is essential for us to flourish, and so our mission is to create psychologically safe workspaces where people can thrive, where they can bring their full, authentic selves, where real transformation can unfold.
At The Space Between Us, we guide leaders and teams through our evidence-based masterclasses, programmes, skills training, and leadership experiences. We empower people with deep insights and pre-emptive, practical tools to help them evoke their innate resilience and shape their own spaces, cultivating inclusive, agile, and forward-thinking organisations. Organisations that, in turn, shape our families, our communities, and the world around us.
What do we mean by
“the space between us”?
Inspired by philosopher Martin Burber’s concept that “our relationships live in the space between us”, and that this space is sacred, we cultivate the consciousness of a space that supports, rather than overwhelms, our cognitive and emotional resources.
When the space between us is nourished, we can inspire a culture of openness, we can learn to break the cycle of impulsive and harmful reactions, and instead, give ourselves the time to process, reflect, and respond with intention. We can allow diversity to flourish and maintain our sense of self while creating authentic connections with those around us.
This is the power of the space between us. And it can be deeply transformative.
