We all know that academia can be stressful and demanding regardless of rank. And in the midst, life happens! We have to manage transitions, unexpected changes, and loss. Balancing these life events while also trying to teach your courses, complete a dissertation, publish your next manuscript, or meet the deadline for a major grant application can be difficult.
Through this interactive workshop, we will:
- Highlight the challenges related to dealing with life transitions and loss as graduate students and faculty from underrepresented backgrounds
- Discuss the common mistakes that graduate students, faculty, and administrators make when faced with life transitions
- Identify coping strategies that will enable you to prioritize your wellness (and dare I say, flourish!) even in the midst of difficult life events
Facilitator: Mindi Thompson, PhD, HSP is an Assistant Professor of Counseling Psychology at The University of Wisconsin-Madison
