Aaron and Jeff tackle a topic that hits close to home for educators: stress and how to effectively manage it. They are joined by Dorothy Morelli, a career educator with over 30 years of experience and co-founder of the non-profits CREATE and Bounceback, and Denine Goolsby, an SEL expert with 46 years as an educator, principal, and executive in social-emotional learning. Also joining in is Sandy Williams, PSEA’s wellness facilitator, who highlights wellness resources for members, offering quick techniques to find calm and joy in stressful moments.

Bounceback is a collaboration of career educators, researchers, and wellness instructors who joined together to tackle K-12 educator stress. Reimagining PD as a digital health offering — a concept that Bounceback refers to as "job-embedded wellness" — helps educators manage stress to improve their personal health and well-being, which ultimately benefits students.
