Burnout or Boundaries? Setting the Stage for a Balanced Year
March 14, 12 – 1 p.m.
Register for boundaries and balance session
Do you ever just need a minute? Are you always the “go to” person on a professional team or at home? Do you keep thinking about ways to problem-solve issues long after others have given up? If so, you might be a highly skilled person who is also at high risk for burnout.
But being excellent doesn’t have to include burnout. Psychological research and common sense generally agree that taking time to assess and address our ever-changing personal needs, work-life balance, and general wellbeing is not a one-time event.
Start the new year with the information and skills you need to set yourself up for balanced well-being in 2025 by learning how to capitalize on your strengths without sacrificing your sanity. In this webinar, we’ll focus on psychological theory and skills for effectively setting and maintaining our personal boundaries as they directly support our overall wellness.
Don’t miss this informative session hosted by Jessica Allanson, Ph.D., M.A., a licensed clinical psychologist with the UCSF FSAP and director of the FSAP Post-Doctoral Fellowship Program.
