Michele Gardner & Brian Hackerson: Unlock Your Awesome - Create an Intention Canvas to BE more over DOING more!
Embracing Self-Care for Change Agents: Building Your Intention Canvas for Lasting Well-Being
Come create an Intention Canvas to set a clear, achievable path while leaving constraining SMART goals behind. Self-care for change agents is critical, but take a moment to think about the WHY behind your self-care plans.
Why meditate for 20 minutes a day, walk 10K steps, eat right, and sleep 8 hours a day? So that you can be balanced, refreshed, and ready to lead!
Do you want to focus on meditation and sleep hygiene? Yes, of course. But think about the WHY behind it: You want to feel amazing when you wake up in the morning - and wake with your change agent battery supercharged.
As change agents and Agilists, learn about 12 Agile Best Self principles, designed specifically to support self-care for change agents so that you can use this lightweight framework to be your best self. Create an Intention Canvas to BE more instead of just DOING more and support your self-care as a change agent.
Facilitators guide you through a workshop that includes examples and a series of simple, introspective questions to help you build an Intention Canvas—a personalized tool for self-care for change agents. Facilitators are on camera the whole time. Participants can join with their cameras on or off. They can also use the chat.
Come prepared with low-res tools (3 sheets of paper or sketchpad, colored pens or pencils) and leave with your personal, hand-drawn Intention Canvas—a unique roadmap for self-care for change agents. You will learn how to use your Intention Canvas.
It will help you make daily decisions. This supports long-term self-care for change agents. You can move beyond burnout and achieve great things!
