Why We Need to Move Beyond Self-Care to Address What’s Burning Us to the Ground

“Self-Care” had a promising start when introduced to the field. At its best, it attempted to acknowledge that the job is hard and we need to honor ourselves. Unfortunately, it has now devolved into a concept that, at best, is unattainable, and, at worst, makes you feel worse (the exact opposite of what self-care is supposed to do). This webinar will discuss concrete alternatives to “self-care” and address reasons why it can be a high-risk strategy for providers in the field.
