We go underneath the stories we see and the systems we accept to explore the human reality beneath them.
Coffee and Mushrooms is about the person behind the visible story and the human reality behind the systems that shape our lives.
We ask what is underneath. And sometimes, we ask the question that might make the room go quiet.

What is underneath?
We see the success. Not always what it took to get there.
We see the career. Not the rejection, doubt or decisions underneath it.
We see organisations saying people are their greatest asset. Not always what it feels like to be one of those people.
We see technology connecting the world. And rarely stop to ask where it might be pulling us further apart.
We ask the questions that take us beneath the surface.
SHAKEN. NOT SIRREDAnother step is possible.
Not every story ends neatly. Some people are still climbing, rebuilding, questioning, changing direction or simply working out what comes next.
There is something to learn from another human being’s story.
Something we can carry into our own lives.

Tracey Lee Shearer
Curious about people, what lies beneath the stories we see, and the questions we don’t always ask.
I’ve spent my career working with people, businesses and industries, and I remain fascinated by what happens beneath the surface. The experiences that shape us, the relationships that sustain us, the systems we accept and the moments that change our direction.
Coffee and Mushrooms is my invitation to have those conversations.
Would you like to be part of Coffee and Mushrooms?
We’re always looking for people with a story, experience or perspective worth going beneath the surface to explore.
If that sounds like you, or someone you know, get in touch.
