How do we take care of ourselves when we feel like a roasting marshmallow that’s caught on fire? Join us for a discussion on managing and navigating the tough conversations school counselors experience. In a time when each week brings new, at times unprecedented, challenges, what do we, as school counselors, do to process the hurt and gravity of our students' lived experiences? How do we manage our own fear and uncertainty in challenging times? Discussion topics will include school counselor resiliency, burnout, navigating political conversations, parent rights, antiracist practices, and managing relationships.
