Just when we thought working in healthcare was stressful enough, we get slammed with a global pandemic. As nurses we are born and bread to be caring, resilient, critical thinkers, or so the public thinks. Two years into the covid-19 crisis we are fighting our own personal battles of fatigue, stress, anxiety, and burnout. Join us in this 45-minute webinar on The Weary Warrior. We promise to leave the self-care tips behind and open the discussion on how to flourish, how to move on and the importance of self-compassion. With a blend of positive psychology and dog humor, we’ll take a different perspective on caring for the caregiver.
