Ep. 13 'Listening to the Silence' - Brenda Cuby

This week Sam welcomes another inspirational 'old' friend. Brenda Cuby joins her from Gibraltar, a British British Overseas Territory and city located at the southern tip of the Iberian Peninsula. As they talk about GibSams, they discuss how important it is not to 'fix' but to be a listening ear when somebody is feeling desperate enough to consider taking their own life. They also discuss the importance of feeling comfortable with the silence and reflect on their own journeys that have brought them to this point in their careers since meeting in Spain in 2007.

Brenda is the CEO at GibSams and has been instrumental in the setting up of this wonderful charity which is helping to provide help to those who are suicidal and those who may just need someone to talk to. Brenda has been part of GibSams since the beginning in 2017 and she works tirelessly to ensure that the Mental Health Service in Gibraltar is improved. She has overseen all areas of the service including, recruitment, training, listening service, wellbeing at work, community outreach, education, events, marketing and fundraising. Brenda is one of the most respected mentor/coach/therapists in Gibraltar when it comes to Holistic Coaching. She is trained in NLP, EFT, RTT, DLC and Hypnosis. Her empathic and intuitive style makes her easy to work with. When she is not working, she loves to spend time with her husband, three children, and pets. Hobbies include cooking, walking, reading, travelling, going to the theatre, listening to music and spending time with friends and family.
