Keynote: Catherine Cook-Cottone - 9:10-10:10 PM
Stress, Burnout, and Mindful Self-Care for Advisors
It is important to validate the stress that we all have been negotiating since early 2020. Burnout rates are high and students are struggling seemingly more than ever. The keynote will review the current context of stress and burnout among advisors and the role of stress in undermining wellbeing. Symptoms of burnout, vicarious trauma, and complicated burnout will be defined. However, it is important to orient ourselves toward what we can do to protect our wellbeing now and in the future. Accordingly, mindful self-care will be discussed within the context of collective care, activism, and system change. The importance of getting back to purpose, a sense of mission, self-compassion, and the assessment of mindful self-care will also be presented. Keynote Biography
