As a result of engaging in this work, staff will be equipped with:

BALANCE -

Better able to handle the daily stressors of work. Being at choice about how to show up and respond to any given situation; personal best will be refreshed with energy.

"It’s very easy to push aside personal concerns during the school year and I couldn’t keep assuming things would magically improve. These workshops made me look deeper into myself and gave me the time and support to explore where my anxiety comes from. I also gained some concrete skills to look at stressors more objectively along with thinking about my response to those stressors."

PURPOSE - 

Rejuvenated connection to their purpose.  Remembering who they are, why they have chosen to do what they do and what it is about the work that fills them with satisfaction; motivation will be reset with intention.

"I’m not sure how much longer I could have pushed myself to do just a little bit more for my job without the conclusions I came to with the help of this course. I feel more centered and capable of giving more attention to myself and my needs. I’m also more confident that what I have to give students is enough."

CONNECTION -

A re-engaged connection built on trust and community among colleagues. Building a sense of community and bond that has been lost or strained over challenging times; relationships will reconnect with trust and empathy.

“It felt vulnerable to share so much with my colleagues, but through it I learned I really could share with my colleagues/ actually friends(!) and their trust in me when they share is a gift I cherish as well.”

“The discussion & the tools really invite thinking & reflection about how I am showing up in certain situations, whether at work or at home.
