Being Present for the training:
We’re so glad we can bring this training to you. To get the most out of the training, and our time together, we invite you to reflect on these questions prior to our training.
-
What are some things that you can keep on hand to bring you comfort during emotionally difficult conversations?
-
After the training, what are some things you can do to care for yourself? If you feel activated from the discussion, what or who in your environment can help soothe you?
If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know. Thank you for getting trained to help!
Best,
Canada
