SPRING 2025 | Thriving Within and Beyond Higher Ed series

Caring for Ourselves as Self-Preservation In 2025

February Workshop & Coaching

The New Year Calls For New Approaches To Self-Preservation

The Workshop Is Driven By The Questions: 

  • How Can We Frame Caring For Ourselves As A Foundation Of Caring For Our Students, Families, And Communities? 

  • What Can We Actively Do To Sustain Ourselves And Move Beyond Surviving? 

I have heard these questions over the years from numerous faculty and staff in higher ed, which has inspired me to offer this workshop and introductory tools. This session is a precursor to deeper coaching and future offerings around the topic of  doing the “inner work” which Gloria Anzaldúa writes is vital to the “outer work” of creating change and building communities. Coaching is an opportunity to delve deeper into these and other topics of interest to clients.

* This is a version of the workshop by the same title offered in January. Two February offerings are available: the workshop and the workshop plus one 1:1 coaching session (see below). Space is limited and coaching slots are scheduled in order of confirmed registrants.

ABOUT MY COACHING. My approach is guided by the principle that thriving within reflects in our outer worlds. I support clients in envisioning and living a path that is unique to them. My coaching offerings are inspired by 20 years of experience in higher education. Today I support others in academia to thrive, according to their own script for success and fulfillment. Coaching sessions are highly personalized and client-focused and I offer a variety of coaching packages. Each session is individually tailored to and co-created with the client. Group coaching is also available and involves the additional layer of extended community through structured peer interaction and support. Please reach out to discuss crafting your story and living your path.                                                                                                             Brenda Sendejo, PhD
