Self-care cabaret for teachers, therapists, and school leaders with Dr. Theresa-Melito Conners - De Facto Leaders

In this episode:

We’ve all sat through some boring professional development before; but there’s nothing boring about the training you’ll get from today's guest Dr. MC.

Many people in “helping professions” like education and healthcare focus more on taking care of others instead of taking care of themselves; Dr. MC joins us to talk about how school leaders can make self-care a part of K-12 culture. But not just for the students; for the staff.

Dr. Theresa Melito-Conners, Ph.D. (Dr. MC) is the founder of Dr. MC’s Self-Care Cabaret, a suite of theatre-inspired self-care and professional development services for helping professionals.

In this conversation Dr. MC shares:

✅Common myths surrounding the “self-care” industry, and why it’s not just wine and bubble baths.

✅Why “not having time” for self-care is a myth, and how to keep yourself grounded even if you only have 5 minutes to spare.

✅How school leaders can make self-care a part of their building culture; for both the staff and leadership.
