Body, Mind, Spirit - Treatment of the Whole Person
Jennifer Ulie-Wells
Learn how self-care is not a destination rather an ongoing, muddy journey to establish boundaries and remove toxicity. In this session, we will engage in conversations to identify your own strengths and challenges and work to develop your own plan for self-care.
You will also gain self-assessment tools you can use in the workplace.
