Reflections on Jeannette Stawski's Spark Talk by SCA https://padlet.com/riskmanagement/jeannette What did that spark for you? What takeaways popped into your mind? What do you want to share with other Unconference participants? en-us 2021-01-26 17:27:00 UTC 2022-02-28 20:06:45 UTC hello@padlet.com Focusing on self https://padlet.com/riskmanagement/jeannette/wish/1763937686 I wish I could swim, let alone swim that much. However, I think what I can take from this is to really tap into self care. And to push myself beyond the boundaries I've created for myself.]]> 2021-09-23 19:36:48 UTC https://padlet.com/riskmanagement/jeannette/wish/1763937686 Prioritize self-work WildRoseEd https://padlet.com/riskmanagement/jeannette/wish/1763938188 Continue to prioritize my self-work into the coming months and years... don't just move forward and forget all I've learned about self-care in the past couple years.]]> 2021-09-23 19:37:07 UTC https://padlet.com/riskmanagement/jeannette/wish/1763938188 Self Care & Growth https://padlet.com/riskmanagement/jeannette/wish/1763939945 Growth begins with self and can be catalyzed by adversity if you are open to it. Will I be open to it?]]> 2021-09-23 19:38:14 UTC https://padlet.com/riskmanagement/jeannette/wish/1763939945 https://padlet.com/riskmanagement/jeannette/wish/1763940168 I really liked the idea of the pandemic as a chance to change ourselves, not as something that inherently changed us. I'm thinking about it as a chance to evolve & change, responding to outside pressures but being able to choose our response.]]> 2021-09-23 19:38:23 UTC https://padlet.com/riskmanagement/jeannette/wish/1763940168 Thank you, Jeannette https://padlet.com/riskmanagement/jeannette/wish/1763940552 Your analogy resonates! Your description of your personal and athletic journey helps describe a challenge I face too. And your focus on preparing for and experiencing the journey, rather than the endpoint or goal, offers a great lesson!]]> 2021-09-23 19:38:37 UTC https://padlet.com/riskmanagement/jeannette/wish/1763940552 Appreciate https://padlet.com/riskmanagement/jeannette/wish/1763940699 So appreciate your willingness to really be vulnerable and share such a personal story. I think it helps folks get comfortable with the idea that they can, and should, stretch themselves. I also love the question of did the pandemic change us? Could we have changed without it?]]> 2021-09-23 19:38:42 UTC https://padlet.com/riskmanagement/jeannette/wish/1763940699 Sighting https://padlet.com/riskmanagement/jeannette/wish/1763940709 I loved the concept of looking off to find something in the distant horizon to focus on and move towards. You may not always see it but you're pointed in the right direction.

I used to think I was defined by my work and my passion for the NPS. When I lost my job due to COVID, I lost myself. Being unemployed with time to reflect helped me find my identity in other things so that I could be joyous no matter the circumstance. Now I work for a non-profit taking care of Bald Eagles and other birds of prey and doing free-flight bird shows to educate people about conservation and I couldn't be happier. I don't think I could have made such a paradigm shift without the trials of the pandemic.]]> 2021-09-23 19:39:19 UTC https://padlet.com/riskmanagement/jeannette/wish/1763941593 Just keep swimming https://padlet.com/riskmanagement/jeannette/wish/1763944047
