This Prof Life Podcast: Women of Color in Higher Education

What drove me to do a series on self-care? In this episode, I tell you how I learned the  importance of self-care when an onset of sickness came knocking at my door at a young  age.

This episode also closes out  Season 3 for This Prof Life: Women  of Color  in Higher Education.  I will be back with all new episodes and stories in June!

Meantime, go to my website: https://www.drpatsanders.com/podcast

Or,  listen to all three seasons  on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, Google Podcasts or anywhere you  listen to your favorite podcasts.  

Dr. Pat shares her own personal story concerning self-care in the last episode of  Season 3.  She explains why she  chose that theme  for the  latest podcasts.

Nicole Vick is a public health advocate and part-time instructor.  She tells us that slowing down, taking some things off the list, and aiming for goals that may be set at a tad lower bar can help us cope. 

In this episode centered around self-care, we learn that we don't have to be that powerhouse, save-the-day Black woman that society has labeled us with. You will enjoy.

This gregarious pastor and coach shares how that was her emotional state at one point. In fact, stress showed up so severely in her back that she had to call 9-1-1. After her own wake-up call, Charity Goodwin learned how to change from a culture of doing too much to being more focused on taking care of herself.

Listen as she shares through honest and raw conversation her first-hand experiences for practicing emotional wellness and growth in leadership through:

1. Emotional intelligence.
2. The things our degrees don’t  teach us.
3. Higher ed intersecting with spiritual health.
4. How the fullest cup requires the steadiest hand.
