Description

Do you ever find yourself wondering why self-care seems to come so easily for some of your colleagues or why you and your colleagues struggle in different ways with self-care? Or maybe you’ve been disappointed with the “one-size fits” all self-care messages you’ve been fed. If so, you’re not alone.In today’s episode, we’re diving into the topic of individual differences. As female mental health clinicians, we share a lot in common, but we’re also each unique, and that uniqueness can play a huge role in how we approach self-care. We hope you will tune in as we explore how unique aspects of ourselves can impact the way we experience work, self-worth, and even the imposter syndrome. And what we can do to use this information to tackle self-care in a truly personal way.Episode Highlights:3 Individual differences we need to consider:Neurodiversity Image of a “successful therapist”Personal history and life circumstancesSelf-care experiments Review your workdayTalk about individual differences with trusted colleaguesFind colleagues who share similar life circumstancesCelebrate the everyday “wins” at work Resources Mentioned:Our past podcast interview with April SnowOur past podcast interview with Dr. Kelly Yanek & Dr. Michele KindermanOur past podcast interview with Silvana Espinoza LauVisit our website to get your own copy of our FREE 4 C's Self-Care Assessment: https://www.intentionaltherapist.caConnect with Melissa & Karen at Intentional Therapist:[email protected]://www.linkedin.com/in/drmelissatiessen/Share one of your own self-care experiments via our SpeakPipe page at: https://www.speakpipe.com/intentionaltherapist Ready to upgrade your self-care?
