Creating change: Understanding human giver syndrome and how you can unlock your true joy with Amelia Nagoski

Take Notes with Jen Rafferty

Do you find yourself constantly giving your all without recognizing your own needs?
While it's admirable to prioritize others and hold space for them, constantly ignoring your needs for the sake of others can lead to teacher burnout.

Also, it's crucial to remember that prioritizing your own needs is just as important as thinking of others.

As a valued and empowered educator, creating a healthy work environment is essential in providing the best possible learning experience for your students. That's why I'm excited to introduce you to episode 25 of Take Notes with Jen Rafferty, featuring special guest Amelia Nagoski.

Amelia, an Associate Professor and Coordinator of Music at Western New England, is an expert on the human body and a celebrated author and conductor. She's here to share insights on a range of topics, from human giver syndrome to the effects of oppressive social systems on individuals.

It's time to remind yourself that you deserve happiness and fulfillment in your life. By taking care of yourself, you can continue to be the best educator you can be. So join us for an inspiring conversation with Amelia Nagoski and start prioritizing your well-being today!

Stay empowered,

Jen
