Nor the years condemn
At the going down of the sun

In this powerful narrative, Helen shares the pivotal moments that shaped her, from growing up in New Zealand, the heartbreaking suicide of her siblings to finding her birth family. These events forced her to confront her deepest fears and ultimately led her to a profound inner transformation. Through her story, Helen reveals how she cultivated an unshakeable sense of inner wealth-a wealth not measured by material possessions, but by self-knowledge, self-love, and a deep connection to purpose.


Now a successful coach, speaker, and advocate for mental health, Helen Harrison dedicates her life to helping others find their own path to healing and empowerment. With candid reflections and actionable insights, Inner Wealth is not just a memoir-it's a guide for anyone seeking to turn their pain into purpose and live a life of true abundance.


Helen's journey is a testament to the resilience that lives within us all. Her story will inspire you to embrace your own challenges, uncover your inner wealth, and step into the life you were always meant to lead.

Do you spend more time "managing" behavior than teaching? Are you exhausted by the time you reach the holidays?

Imagine a school where students, parents, teachers, and leaders joyfully take responsibility for their own choices, behavior, and learning because they have mastered connection. Through the lens of applied neuroscience, Loving our Students on Purpose will empower you with the tools to shift from the weariness of reactive behavior management to purposeful behavior education, which will result in teachers enjoying teaching and students enjoying learning.

Loving our Students on Purpose has everything you need to stay connected with your students whilst they learn from their mistakes. You will never argue with a student (or parent) again!
