Shirley Billson has spent more than a decade helping anxious young people and adults to overcome mental obstacles and thrive. She speaks regularly on topics including courage and motivation and how to challenge accepted norms to build self-esteem. She founded the Mental Wealth Factory in 2018 to support secondary schools and teens under pressure. However, since identifying the surprising parallels between anxiety in puberty and anxiety in midlife, since 2020, she has dedicated the majority of her time to providing therapeutic coaching to adults in midlife and menopause through Menopause Anxiety Freedom.
