In this learning community, participants will read Unraveling Faculty Burnout, a book by Rebecca Pope-Ruark, who explores how we can reframe our experiences and conversations to mitigate burnout, specifically addressing the stressors unique to female faculty and female faculty of color. All are welcome.

Over the three sessions, learn about the “four pillars of burnout resilience,” as discussed in the book:

  • Re-discovering your purpose and sense of meaningful work.
  • Practicing compassion for yourself and others.
  • Deepening connections with peers and mentors.
  • Re-establishing realistic balance through self-care and setting boundaries.
