Welcome back to the compassion fatigue podcast. In case you’re joining us for the first time, we talk a lot about self-care on this show as a way to build resiliency and fight compassion fatigue. In order to practice my own self-care, I took a break from the show during the month of August. Not only did this help me to relax and recharge, but it also allowed me to get my creative juices flowing again. I’ve been tossing an idea around for a while now and I was able to really take some time to focus on it and I wanted to take the time today to share that idea with you, and because it’s something I’m creating specifically for you, I would love to have your input.
I’m going to be creating a retreat for animal caregivers, workers, and activists that focuses on managing compassion fatigue and burnout. I know a lot of us struggle with self-care and taking time out for ourselves, but this retreat is really going to be about learning to recharge your battery so that you can go back feeling relaxed and reconnected to your passion. Not only will you have the opportunity to slow down and take care of yourself, but you’ll also be surrounded by a small group of people that share that same passion for helping animals. So you’ll be given a safe space to talk about the some of the struggles that are inherent in animal welfare work, such as the stress, grief, guilt, and trauma that so many of you often face on a daily basis, and what you can do about it. We’ll laugh, we’ll cry. We’ll relax, we’ll have fun!
So you if you think that you might be interested in joining us next year for our first ever Rescue Me! Retreat, I would love to hear from you. Simply go to thecompassionfatiguepodcast.com/events where you can fill out a short interest form, to help me create the perfect retreat for you!
We’ll be back in full swing next week when I speak with my friend Brian Mayer on how to improve communication in the workplace.
