TIME: 3.30pm to 5.00pm (live online and recorded)
TOPIC: Just Quickly...From Constant Interruptions to Grounded, Resilient and Flourishing
GUEST SPEAKER: Dr Jodi Richardson
Master Class Overview
Interrupted mid-task, juggling competing requests and protecting a leader everyone wants time with, EAs in schools spend much of their day on high alert. In this masterclass, Dr Jodi Richardson unpacks what all that switching does to your nervous system and your ability to think clearly, plan and problem solve. You'll learn simple ways to punctuate your day and close the stress loop, let go of the worry that lingers after a tricky interaction, and hold boundaries that enable you to genuinely disconnect from work. Expect practical strategies, rich discussion with your peers and a good laugh, as we finish the year focused on what truly helps you feel good and function well.
