As school counselors, we often carry the weight of our students' problems and it's a struggle to not bring those concerns home. So how do we transition from the heavy role of school counseling to being fully present in our personal lives? This episode tackles that very question, providing you with practical strategies and introducing the concept of a transition ritual - a game changer in achieving the elusive work-life balance. You'll learn how to create a transition ritual that works for you, one that will truly help you leave the work day behind. We’ll guide you through the process, explain how to build this habit and make it stick. Plus, we'll also be talking about our upcoming Best Year Ever event on July 25th - a fantastic opportunity to gear up for the new school year. So, join us as we navigate the tricky waters of separating our professional lives from our personal ones, and learn how to truly unwind after a hard day's work.
