About Us

As an entrepreneur for most of her adult life, Jasmine’s work supporting all ages spans three decades in Australia and the USA. As a teacher, trainer, coach, writer and program director, Jasmine has facilitated health, fitness, swimming, wellbeing and yoga programs in schools, clubs, at events, in workplaces, community centres and in a variety of private and business settings since the 1990s.

As a parent since 1999, and a wellness educator in schools since 2006, Jasmine continued to witness the low priority given to the wellbeing of staff and students within the education system. This continued even though the demand for mental health and emotional support was increasing each year. This ‘wellbeing gap’ is why Jasmine continued to invest her time and experience in developing the RESET Framework and empower communities with wellbeing life-skills.

As the founder, program writer and lead facilitator for a Not-For-Profit organisation Yoga Tools For Schools Inc. (2011 – 2018), Jasmine developed and tested body-breath-mind yoga strategies with hundreds of educators and students in QLD schools. Jasmine’s ongoing research through the delivery of RESET programs since 2019 is supporting the the physical, mental-emotional and social wellbeing of youth and adults in all settings.

Ruben has completed a Diploma of Youth and has been working with the RESET Team since 2022. As a Level 1 Teacher, Ruben supports young people with body-breath-mind wellbeing strategies. Ruben is also a Program Manager of our Community Classes and a RESET Mentor to teenagers.

“I have always been passionate about understanding the influences that have a lasting impact on the way we develop into adults. Having first-hand experience with some of the issues young people encounter on a daily basis, one of my goals is to gain a deeper understanding of the physical, mental, emotional and social influences that impact youth. 

Being a part of this team gives me the opportunity to create calm, clarity and confidence within myself and the ability to share these empowerment strategies with others. Working in this space also allows me to share my experiences to help assist in the implementation of this program and bring positive change!”

Ruben loves cats, enjoys Jiu Jitsu, video games, reading, writing and playing the guitar.

Addie has been attending RESET Community Classes since 2024 and has started learning how to support the delivery of RESET Community Classes.

“I like the routine of RESET each week to prioritise my mental health, self-care, being in the moment and appreciating life for what it is. RESET reframes my stress into calmer more positive perspectives. I also like meeting new people and building new connections. Joining the RESET Team supports my values for promoting wellness while also cleansing my mind!”

Addie enjoys bike riding, the beach, using the creative part of her brain and having a good laugh!

One of Juele’s creative passions is videography and film making. Juele captures a range of RESET visuals of our community work as well as sharing her valuable insights as a young adult in today’s world.

“From a young age I struggled with social anxiety. I was bullied at school and grew up with the incline  of online connectivity, social media and the rapid decline of mental health in young people. I always had yoga around me, but I didn’t fully understand it’s benefits. Upon entering high school, I practiced yoga less because I couldn’t be bothered, or I thought I was too cool to meditate. Reflecting now on the personal struggles I endured throughout school, I understand what it must be like for younger teenagers today. The days I start my day with mindful movement and meditation are the days I can conquer the world! These tools work, and most teens don’t even realise how essential it is to take time to re-centre yourself.

I find the art of film making stunning as well as meditative. Seeing how fidgeting and an unsteady breath transitions into complete calm after RESET is so powerful! You can actually see and feel the energy completely shift! I’m so proud to be a part of this program to help more youth gain access to this experience.”

As an educator, Renae has worked with young people in primary schools and adult education settings for more than fifteen years. As a researcher in the field of education for over a decade, Renae’s work has investigated both teacher wellbeing and student wellness, as well as the need for inclusion and belonging in teaching and learning experiences. Renae’s view is that a sense of openness around the prevalence of stress and anxiety, along with access to a range of strategies to improve wellness, is essential in countering the impacts and stigma that can be associated with experiencing mental health concerns.

With professional and personal experience of the value of yoga and meditation, Renae is an ongoing advocate for programs such as Youth RESET, that provide support for students (and their teachers) to navigate life’s challenges.

“One of the most worthwhile things schools can do to support young people is to help them develop their emotional awareness. The mindful awareness skills within yoga and meditation are beneficial strategies that provide people time and space for self-care, calm and connection in an often chaotic and accelerated world.”

Krissy loves to talk about holistic wellbeing for parents and children. Krissy is also a business consultant (KR Consulting), an author, and a mentor working alongside young people throughout community to achieve their potential.

“I left home at a young age and had to navigate boarding school aged 11. While I possessed many life skills my social skills were not so well developed as I grew up on a cattle station. My younger years were home-schooled, so being thrusted into a classroom was a new experience. I developed a level of independence and courage from my experiences but I didn’t have the right guidance to manage the mental and emotional strains of life. 

As a parent my goal is to help my children understand their thoughts and their emotions so they can take care of themselves as well as others. As a mentor to young people I encourage bravery and self-belief and that no matter where they come from, they can go where-ever they want in life. After working all over the world for almost three decades, I moved home to Townsville to raise my young family. I bring my world-ly experience and my rural up-bringing to help me navigate the speed of the modern world. Youth RESET has helped my family with manageable foundation strategies when we feel stressed and overwhelmed.”

Krissy loves writing, travelling, marathon running and all three at once to save time and see more!
