Beyond Self-Care: Leading a Systemic Approach to Well-Being for Educators

So often, when educators talk about well-being, the conversation begins and ends with self-care without addressing all aspects of educator wellness. In Beyond Self-Care, Gail Markin dives into the importance of well-being on the individual, communal, and system-wide levels as well as the role of leadership in ensuring their schools can be sustainable. With research-backed practices and excerpts of conversations from working educators, Markin delivers a guidebook to healthier, more passionate schools.

    Claire Guy, Educational Consultant

  • The book reads like you're sitting and talking to me. When I'm reading the book, I can hear your voice like a friend is talking versus somebody preaching or lecturing. The book has such a nice tone to it!
