#coachbetter Episode 46: The Importance of Self-Care for Instructional Coaches

In today's episode we’re chatting with Cindy Tisdall-McPhee, Head of Counseling at UWC Singapore. This was a powerful conversation, highlighting the importance of self-care in a coaching role. Cindy reminds us that taking care of ourselves, allows us, as coaches, to be better engaged and present at work, and when you’re present, it’s easier for staff to approach you. There are so many specific and authentic examples of how coaches can work with counselors - from supporting parents, to helping ease the transition to (or away) from a school for students, to connecting the social and emotional elements to, our often, skill-based work around digital citizenship. This conversation sparked so many great ideas that we are inspired to create a follow up series, don’t miss it!
