Keynote: Totally swamped and utterly overwhelmed?

Course overview

When you care so much about the young people you help, life can feel crushingly busy. You’re juggling countless balls at school and at home – and doing everything you can to keep them all in the air. And it feels impossible to switch off, as you take work home with you: books and files weighing down your bags; thoughts of certain children crowding your head.

In this webinar with Corrina Gordon-Barnes, you'll learn highly practical tools for:

• Pressing Pause: Managing your energy effectively so that you can most intelligently prioritise your time
• Saying No: Setting realistic boundaries and communicating these gracefully to others (as well as making peace with them yourself)
• Regaining Your Power: Returning your focus to where you have choices and the greatest impact

This webinar will help you shift from it feeling like a daily choice between your wellbeing or theirs, and it will support you to be the calm, capable, on-top-of-things practitioner you long to be.
