Brenda Weeks, Business Manager Nursing Practice

"Working with John as a facilitator for our agricultural mental health and peer support training has been a great experience. His professionalism, expertise, and approachable style made the sessions both informative and relatable. His training was tailored to meet the unique needs of our farming community, ensuring it was practical and engaging. John was great to work with, and had a great ability to connect with our group and address real-world challenges. Highly recommend!"

Victoria Hutt - Mental Health and Farm Safety Coordinator, Agriculture New Brunswick

"Thanks you very much John for your presentation at the Dairy NB AGM in Fredericton, NB at the Delta on December 4th, 2024. Afterwards, there were many dairy producers and their spouses from the audience that came up to myself and Brian MacDonald after the meeting to say things that you said about changing small things in there lives would have the greatest effect. A number of them said that they could relate to times in their lives when they felt better after walking, eating better and connecting with nature and needed a reminder of these easy and inexpensive ways to make small changes to a better mental heath. Thanks you so much for your time and I would recommend this presentation to any group looking to begin down the road to better mental health."

David Dykstra - New Brunswick Department of Agriculture, Aquaculture Fisheries

We had the pleasure of hosting John Fletcher as a guest speaker at our employee wellness event not. John's down-to-earth approach to public speaking left a lasting impression on our staff that day. His vast knowledge and relatable demeanor resonated with many of us. John shared his "Farming for Mental Health" model and highlighted the significance of each pillar in nurturing our overall mental well-being. His words sparked meaningful conversations and inspired us to prioritize mental health in our personal and professional lives."

Denise Newbatt - Superior Screens, Conveyors & Crushers Inc.

" John conducted a one-day mental wellness course for all departments of the City of Miramichi. What impressed me most about John's approach was that he was able to move fluently back and forth between departments with ease (i.e., Police, Fire, Public Works, Engineering, Tourism, HR). John is a dynamic speaker and can think on his feet very quickly. His session with us was very interactive and beneficial, and I would highly recommend John's services to anyone that is looking to make a difference and/or change their life for the better!"

Brian Cummings, Chief of Police for Miramichi City Police Force

"Having worked with John for a number of years, I can attest to his ability to deliver interesting and informative training. He has the unique ability to convey important content in an engaging fashion that keeps the audience’s attention. He uses analogies that resonate with his listeners. John has a wealth of knowledge in the area of mental health and is able to communicate the material in a down-to-earth, relatable manner to the participants. He incorporates activities that have the audience taking away practical applications from his training. Whether John is delivering sessions to professionals, parents or the general public, the comments are always positive and leave people feeling it was well worth their attendance. I highly recommend John as an engaging, dynamic, and enlightening speaker!"

Connie Daley, Director of Educational Support Services for Anglophone School District North

"In June of 2023, John was invited to facilitate a full-day training session on mental health literacy to the City of Bathurst leadership team. Through the use of his personal experiences, instructiveness, and easy-to-understand approach, John’s facilitation style was one that immediately captivated and set the group at ease. Thanks to John, the team undoubtedly elevated their understanding and awareness of this incredibly important topic."
