For many who are engaged in helping professions, it can feel easier to focus on the needs and characteristics of others than on oneself. We may become out of touch with who we are, our own needs, strengths, and brokenness. Without knowing it, we might be trying to meet unmet needs through our work—specifically the needs for impact, intimacy, approval, identity and self-worth. These are normal and healthy needs that can be met through unhealthy means if they drive our motive in serving others.

In this 1-hour Ethics of Burnout Prevention CE, workshop participants will explore their motivations for doing this work and the underlying needs they might be trying to meet.

They will be led in grounding somatic practices, reflection, and free-writing exercises. The hope is for you to walk away with some small steps toward change in order to be more grounded in who you are, more present to those around you, and more resilient in your work and life.

Workshop will be recorded but CE only available to attendees during live event.
