Kaysha Leveridge

Kaysha is a Certified Professional Coach through the Institute of Professional Excellence in Coaching (iPEC) who specializes in the trademarked Energy Leadership Framework. This Universe was created out of a desire to share this globally impactful framework in a way that children could relate to and understand.

Having worked with over 2,000 adults in the last 10 years through workshops, seminars, online and in persons programmes and 1:1 coaching, one question kept coming up over and over for Kaysha.

What if children could be exposed to these principles early - how could this awarenes impact their lives.

When she had her own children, this question became personal. She decide to create the tools she needed and invite other parents along on the journey.

The Energy Friends Universe is my gift to every child learning how to regulate their emotions and every parent who is joining them on the journey.

Why This Work...

Why It Matters?

Children experience emotions every day.

Yet very few children are ever taught how to understand those feelings or what they are trying to tell us.

The Energy Friends Universe was created to gently guide children through those emotional experiences using storytelling, memorable characters, and meaningful life lessons.

Inside this universe, children discover something powerful:

Feelings are not something to fear.

Feelings are messages.

And when they understand their feelings, they can make thoughtful choices.

When children learn this early in life, they begin to:

  • Respond thoughtfully instead of reacting impulsively

  • Build confidence in how they handle difficult emotions

  • Grow into emotionally aware, resilient, and compassionate individuals

*A Sneak Peek of our Collection of Stories. Pre-order available now. Delivery of stories begin on September 30th, 2026.

Inspired by the trademarked Energy Leadership ™️Framework. This work is a personal interpretation of the Energy Leadership framework used by Kaysha for the last 10 years, and uniquely adapted for children.

Each Energy Friend teaches us something very special.

Why Choose Us

Frequently Asked Questions

We provide more than just childcare—we create a nurturing environment where children feel safe, valued, and inspired to learn. Our play-based programs balance fun, creativity, and education, giving every child the tools to grow with confidence and curiosity.

1. What age group are The Energy Friends for?

The Energy Friends are best suited for children ages 3–10 years old.

Younger children connect deeply with the characters and visuals, while older children engage more with the emotional tools and conversations. Many families find the stories grow with their child over time.

2. Is this therapy?

No. The Energy Friends are not therapy.

They are emotional literacy tools designed to help children understand and regulate their feelings in everyday life. They can complement therapy, counseling, or school support, but they are not a replacement for professional mental health care.

3. How do The Energy Friends actually help my child?

Each character represents a common emotional experience (anger, fear, overwhelm, sadness, impulsivity, responsibility, reflection).

Through stories and tools, children learn to:

• Recognise what they’re feeling
• Name it clearly
• Use simple regulation techniques
• Express themselves safely

Over time, this builds emotional vocabulary, resilience, and confidence.

4. What makes this different from other children’s books?

The Energy Friends are built on principles from the Energy Leadership™ framework translated into language children understand.

These are not just stories.

They are structured emotional tools wrapped in storytelling and play.

Each book includes practical application ideas that parents can use immediately.

5. Are the books physical or digital?

The books are digital. However, they are as beautifully illustrated as physical books.
Some printable tools and colouring sheets are also delivered digitally for easy access at home.

6.What are regulation corners?

A regulation corner is a small, safe space where a child can pause, breathe, and reset when emotions feel big.

The Energy Friends provide tools and visuals to help you create a simple, calming space in your home or classroom; no complicated setup required.

7. Will boys relate to the characters?

Yes.

While the characters are gentle and magical, the emotional themes are universal.

8. Do I need the full collection?

Each book can stand alone.

However, the full collection gives children a complete emotional vocabulary and toolkit, allowing them to understand a wide range of feelings instead of just one or two.

9.How do parent workshops work?

Our parent workshops help adults understand:

• The emotional principles behind the characters
• How to model regulation at home
• How to respond instead of react
• How to build emotionally safe environments

10. How can I get started?

Start by joining Feelings Forest and downloading our free emotional check-in tools.

From there, you can explore books, printables, and workshops at your own pace.

Shaping Tomorrow’s Thinkers with Care and Imagination

We help children build the skills and confidence they need for every stage of life. Through hands-on exploration, meaningful play, and individual support, we spark a lifelong journey of discovery and growth.
