ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
Outline and Show Notes
What Does Burnout Mean? With Dr. Julie Hasson
Power Quote: “The wrong kind of hard.”
Teaser:
Dr. Julie Hasson and I has so much fun recording our conversation – we just kept on talking, so instead of giving you a giant dump of stuff, we decided to break it into two distinct episodes. In part 1, we go deep into burnout, toxic positivity, and self-care. In next week’s show we’ll dig into Julie’s Recharge model. This is an episode rich in takeaways – not “rah rah” self-care - real things based on the challenges we are all dealing with.
Sponsor Spot 1:I talk to a lot of Assistant Principals, and one thing that comes up all the time is the question - how do we create experiences students will remember forever? That’s where travel can really make a difference, and my friends at Kaleidoscope Adventures help schools create trips that go beyond just checking a box. They create adventures that build confidence, create connection, and give students something to carry with them long after they leave the classroom. If you’re looking to create those kinds of moments for your students, Kaleidoscope Adventures is a great place to start. Visit their website, mykatrip.com, and start planning your next school trip today.
