About this Learning Opportunity
The end of the school year can be incredibly demanding, leaving educators feeling drained and emotionally depleted. The solution? A 2-hour webinar about your own emotional wellbeing, of course! Hopefully that made you smile a little… The point is, exhaustion and compassion fatigue are common in this field and at this time of year, and this can make self-care seem out of reach. This webinar addresses the critical issue of compassion fatigue, specifically tailored to the unique challenges faced by educators as we approach the end of the school year.
We will explore the signs and symptoms of compassion fatigue, providing practical strategies for self-care and stress management during this high-pressure time. Rest assured, we will NOT add more tasks or action items to your list! You will learn evidence-based techniques to replenish your emotional reserves and build resilience to prevent burnout. This session offers a supportive space to connect with colleagues and gain actionable strategies for maintaining well-being as you navigate the final weeks of the school year and prepare for a much needed break. The real goal: to feel refreshed, re-energized, and ready to embrace the summer months with renewed vitality.
