We see things most people don’t want to talk about and often pretend don’t exist in this world. It takes a special type of COURAGE to keep coming back. Having a HEART is seen as a liability, but it is also the foundation of our motivation to make a difference in a child’s life. When we forget to use our BRAIN to make healthy choices, we allow the flying monkeys to bring stress, trauma and eventually burnout into our lives. You have had the power all along to create a healthy self and ensure the wicked witch does not follow you on your journey. Participants in this workshop will be challenged to use their Courage to identify the risk factors and stand up to vicarious trauma, listen to their Heart to remind them of the great work they do and use their Brain to develop healthy strategies and a personal plan to get back home again!
Learning Objectives:
Examine how the choices you make a difference
Realize that you had the power all along
