In her talk, Katherine expresses the beautiful struggle she finds herself in on a daily basis; balancing the worlds of the professional and the personal and all that fits in-between.
How do we then, negotiate the personal parts of our lives and leave time for it when it is incredibly hard to say 'no' to the obligations and myriad of commitments that certainly can impact health and overall passion for other interests outside of our professional ones?
This talk will hopefully help shed light through Katherine's sharing of her own personal narrative for fellow educators and stakeholders.
Ultimately having the courage to say no; to allow more space for personal time, is what may possibly necessitate change in order to attend to what can be identified to us as the most important: our well-being, managing our stress as professionals but most of all, the journey we take learning to know ourselves.
