Presentation Description: 
Educators are nurturers. Any good nurturer is likely to consider the needs of others above their own needs. That’s certainly admirable, but if left unchecked, self-neglect could lead to chronic stress and eventual burnout. Are you loving yourself as well as you love those around you? This session was created to give you a better understanding of what a healthy you should look like—occupationally, emotionally, spiritually, financially, and physically. You will also receive practical strategies to increase well-being in each of those areas. Attendee Takeaways: • Participants will understand the relationship between self-care and professional effectiveness. • Participants will understand what it means to be well occupationally, emotionally, financially, spiritually and physically. • Participants will be offered practical strategies to increase well-being in each of the five areas of well-being
