Connection is the energy that is created between people when they feel seen, heard, and valued; when they can give and receive without judgment.
What does it mean to truly belong? In this episode of Arkansas A.W.A.R.E., Dr. Betsy Kindall, Nicole Fairchild, and Dr. Stacy Moore unpack the essence of belonging and self-care, especially for educators. Drawing inspiration from Brené Brown and Sebastian Junger, they explore how genuine connection goes beyond mere fitting in. It's about being seen, heard, and valued for who you are. The trio delves into how social media skews our perception of belonging and emphasizes the importance of authentic communities.
By fostering environments where teachers feel connected and appreciated, they argue, we can build resilience and promote mental health. Whether you're an educator or someone interested in community building, this episode offers heartfelt insights and practical tips for creating inclusive spaces.
