Of all the very good trainings I have had on this platform, this was the best--and it wasn't even on a topic that I was particularly excited to learn more about. The instructor was phenomenal, extremely knowledgeable, engaging, insightful, and credible. I will now follow his podcasts and other platforms because he was that good . . .
I am so glad that this is a part of CLE training. These are important insights and reminders about creating healthy boundaries, self-care, and psychological regulation, which we can then apply to our work environments whenever we can.
