Self-Care for the Carer: Finding Space Within

Caring about others is often what draws people into coaching. And empathy is one of the core tenets of coaching. When do these values begin to take a toll on the very people who hold them?

Regardless of their niche, many coaches today work with clients facing complex challenges, ongoing stress, and increasing demands in both work and life. When we are continually exposed to this level of emotional intensity, we risk compassion fatigue and burnout, especially as many of us are also navigating our own pressures and challenges.

In this workshop, we will:
– Explore the emotional demands of coaching in our current context
– Reflect on the impact this has on us as practitioners
– Experience simple practices that support self-care and regulation
– Consider what sustainable self-care can look like in an individual context
