I love people who do what my guest has done, to create a business that doesn't only help people but allows others to do so as well, whilst making a living is a truly remarkable achievement!

Karen Gibb is the founder and CEO of Mind Marvels which is an award-winning franchise created by Karen Gibb.

Karen is a fully qualified teacher and has prior experience in youth development and early years education.

Karen taught young people with social, emotional and behavioural needs and pupils with severe and complex additional support needs, including autism and ADHD.

Through her work, Karen saw the benefits for children when they were taught practical ways to support their own emotional well-being but many did not know how to support themselves.

“As an anxious youngster myself, I now make a direct, positive impact on children and their emotional wellbeing.”

Mind Marvels gives children calming tools and practical strategies to understand their own emotions to feel more confident, build resilience and learn skills for life.

Mind Marvels has now franchised the business so like-minded individuals can own a Mind Marvels business in their local area. To learn more check out https://mindmarvels.com/
