We invite you to a Special Virtual Group Program For Sensitive Helping Professionals, Caregivers, Creatives and Changemakers

Put it all down and let it be.

During four 90 minute workshop sessions in November and December, we invite you into an experience of uninterrupted time to be with yourself and others. You deserve caring too. We are honoured to help you nurture your wisdom, your somatic knowing and embrace the uniqueness of you. We have designed this program to support you in protecting your time and energy and honouring your capacity and needs.

Your Investment Includes: $333

Each session will include a blend of storytelling, personal reflections, small and large group discussions, a psycho-educational exercise, a guided visualization or intuitive movement practice along with a summary handout with key concepts, journal prompts to return to whenever you need and recommended resources.

Live attendance of the workshops may qualify for CEUs.

You Can Care Without Carrying the Weight of the World on Your Shoulders.

We know you are busy and brilliant. You don’t need more work to do or to be told what to do. The answers lie within. But everyone needs time and space to slow down and connect. Despite being essential work, caregiving at home and as work is deeply devalued by society. Women, especially helping professionals are burning out. Health concerns, mental health issues and relationship struggles are on the rise. Compassion fatigue compromises our work. These practices can enhance your use of self and help you become a better partner, parent and professional.

‘Caring Without Carrying It All’ a 2 part podcast conversation with Nicole Schiener with Julie Cusmariu

Nicole Schiener is passionate about fostering healthy relationships at home and work and is on a mission to liberate mothers from perfectionism and the pressure to do it all. Part 1 of my conversation with Nicole Schiener included the following:

-Topics connected to Eve Rodsky’s book, FAIRPLAY- A Game Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live).
i.e. the misconception that women have infinite time and men have finite time. As Eve Rodsky says in her book.
-Recovering from the pandemic
-Burnout and Compassion Fatigue and the difference between the two.
-How therapy can support you.
-In Nicole’s words how can we “Care without carrying all the responsibilities.”

Listen to the full conversation here. Part 1.

More of what we talked about in Part 2 of our conversation.

-Women are socialized to devalue their time. We explored one of the rules described in Eve Rodsky’s book, FAIR PLAY ( A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have To Much To Do): Rule #1-ALL TIME IS CREATED EQUAL and how we have existed inside a construct in which men’s time is treated as finite but women’s as infinite.

-What might equity in relationship look like.

-Tips and insights on raising our kids to honor time and responsibility. Including at what age we may expect kids to start making their own lunches and cleaning their rooms.

-We spoke to the invisible work, the mental load, the emotional labour and all that shows up in a day’s work (and that’s outside of the work we get paid for).

And much more with some levity and warmth.

“We expect women to work like they don’t have children and raise children like they don’t have work.” Amy Westervelt. Quote shared in ‘FAIR PLAY’.
