Session 301

Breakout Sessions

Drawn to caring professions due to our value of compassion and service to others, we likely have deep-rooted identity formation around helping. We entered our roles discovering the joy of “compassion satisfaction” – feeling good about making a difference through relationship. When we experience compassion fatigue or burnout, it’s in conflict with our values. This breakout session reminds us to care for ourselves as we care for others so that we can avoid burnout and find a renewed passion and energy. Come and learn hands-on techniques to access your “super power” for daily renewal!
