SUMMARY:Helping the Helpers
DESCRIPTION:Helping isn’t easy—especially in times that feel uncertain\, overwhelming\, or out of our control. Many of us find ourselves carrying heavy responsibilities (with family\, caregiving\, being an RA\, work\, etc.)\, navigating tough circumstances\, and trying to do right by the people and programs we care about\, even when the odds feel stacked against us. It can be both heartbreaking and meaningful\, exhausting and fulfilling—all at once. This session offers space to acknowledge the weight of helping in hard times\, to name the impact it has on us\, and to consider ways to keep going without losing ourselves to burnout\, compassion fatigue\, and resentment.
