Difficult Discussions
Challenging and often uncomfortable situations arise in our classroom and workplaces every day. While we can’t avoid them, we can be more prepared, both personally and professionally.
Teaching Well-Being
What does it mean to invite and support the "whole person" within the classroom, promoting awareness and self-care? How can we each be more prepared to do this?
