Do you ever wish you had more hours in the day to get everything done? One of the biggest challenges supervisors mention is simply not having enough time to get everything done that’s been added to their plates. In this episode, we’re going to talk about how to navigate this overwhelming problem. We’ll talk about how to stop worrying about how to do more with less and instead focus on the things that matter most, including you and your team's wellbeing.  
As always, Alicia and I are here to support you as you reflect on where you are and where you need to go. One great way to invest in yourself and your team is to join us for the summer cohort of the Supervisor Strengths Institute.
We are revamping the Institute to make it even more manageable for your busy schedule. It’s the same great content but we’ve condensed it so you can work through each week’s modules and start implementing change even faster.
We know life can too easily get in the way of you staying on track, so we’ve also added a bonus for everyone who completes all eight weeks of learning. You get an additional 60 minutes of our time! You can use that for more individual coaching, a short team session, or to receive a discount on a longer team workshop.
We want you, your team, and your students to shine their brightest, and that starts with you. Register for the summer cohort of the Supervisor Strengths Institute. It starts on Tuesday, May 28th and runs through July 23rd. You'll get the support you need to better manage your energy, stress, and your team.

If you're a supervisor, you probably love folks who are team players. You know, the people who over perform, exceed expectations, and give 100% for your students and Institution. I've had folks complain and worry about this new generation of employees because they don't go above and beyond. But did you know that the very attributes we love to see in our employees are also trauma responses? In this episode, I have a guest, Laura Brackett, a Licensed Professional Counselor, who specializes in treating adults healing from trauma. Laura breaks down how trauma often shows up at work and how you can create a trauma informed workplace that will better support your team's well-being, engagement, and performance.

It can feel like a win-lose situation. Either you and your talents get what they need and have a great day, or they do. In this episode, you'll learn how to navigate those situations so both of you get your needs met AND you support each other in becoming your best selves.

Having a Work Best Friend (WBF) can improve you and your team's engagement, productivity, and communication. Learn why it's so important and how you can encourage your team to find their WBF.
