2026 Zoe Carroll - Time on My Terms

Time isn’t just measured—it’s mapped internally. And for many neurodivergent thinkers, those internal time maps operate outside conventional expectations. In this experiential workshop, you’ll explore your personal relationship with time through the combined lens of NLP submodalities and the timeless concepts of Chronos (structured, external time) and Kairos (intuitive, felt time). Together, we’ll uncover how your neurology represents time—visually, emotionally, and somatically—and how those representations shape your experience of pressure, planning, and flow. Whether you coach others or are navigating your own nonlinear time sense, this session offers tools to reframe unhelpful time patterns, regulate time-related stress, and align your inner rhythms with the realities of daily life—without sacrificing authenticity or self-trust. You’ll engage in guided processes, rich reflection, and somatic calibration to build a time experience that’s personally sustainable and professionally powerful. Learning Outcomes By the end of this workshop, you will: Understand Chronos and Kairos as time models—and how neurodivergent experiences of time may differ from dominant cultural narratives. Identify your unique time-processing style using NLP submodalities, spatial anchoring, and linguistic markers. Recognise the emotional, sensory, and cognitive effects of time-based stress, urgency, or dysregulation. Recode and reframe unhelpful time associations using personalised NLP strategies—enhancing decision-making, planning, and wellbeing. Cultivate deeper self-trust and clarity by integrating both flow-based and structured approaches to time.
