Understanding Career Trauma & It's Impact
Work not only provides for our basic needs through our paycheck, it provides us purpose and meaning. What happens when our workplace becomes toxic, harmful or even abusive? Or when we label boundaries as ‘quiet quitting’? Career-based trauma impacts all types of individuals, and it’s crucial we work with clients at the intersection of career development and trauma-informed care. Amanda Chenkin and Rae Stout will provide an overview of trauma, career trauma, tangible techniques to use with clients, and understand how we can support our clients and even ourselves as workers.
Clarify Your Work-Life Balance Priorities So You Can Help Others Do The Same
Most of us got into the career development field because we want to help others build satisfying and healthy careers and lives. But to effectively help those we serve, we must also take care of ourselves by nurturing our own career development and work-life balance needs.
Join Certified Career Counselor, Anush Hansen, for an engaging, highly interactive session in which you’ll sort out your priorities using a holistic Work-Life Balance Assessment card sort tool, come up with a plan for building your priorities into your life, and participate in powerful discussions about what it means to take care of yourself as you take care of others. Through this activity you will also learn strategies for administering the Work-Life Balance Assessment with your clients and/or employees to help them build what matters most to them into their lives.
More details available through the registration page.
Early-bird pricing will be available until October 4th, at which point regular pricing will open and be accessible until the day of the event, October 25th.
