A4: “don’t link your school emails to your phone” I need to turn on do not disturb...I have it on because I may be away from my computer during the school day...but this can be dangerous in the evening. Need to be better about this. #PubPDAsia

@FernandaOlivaRi People don’t ask for advice enough, but you gotta #stayhumble & learn from others! Especially at a new school... #PubPDAsia

A3: Work-Life Balance is a real & needed thing! I don’t preach it for no reason. You’ll burn out real easy without effective self-care & coping skills after a hard day. #PubPDAsia

[Kathleen Brophy @BrophyKM1]

A1: yoga, planning & cooking meals for myself instead of going out, spending time moving my body everyday, meditation (although should do more frequently) #PubPDAsia

[Kathleen Brophy @BrophyKM1]

A2: sleeping in/snoozing my alarm. I set time to work out every morning but sometimes I would rather stay under the covers... #PubPDAsia

A7 Out loud! Growth can’t happen in silence. With colleagues, through twitter, with supervisors, etc. #issedu

[Kathleen Brophy @BrophyKM1]

@hkanabar @ISSCommunity I would say it is a combination of strong emphasis on academic achievement with cultural feelings of shame related to showing & dealing with uncomfortable emotions & setbacks/problems.

[Kathleen Brophy @BrophyKM1]

A5 Cultural understanding of the importance of wellness & social-emotional health. A continued challenge with our population for sure. #issedu

[Kathleen Brophy @BrophyKM1]

A3 Hoping to develop a comprehensive suicide intervention & prevention policy. As well as continue embedding & implementing our child protection curriculum for all grade levels. Large projects! #issedu

[Kathleen Brophy @BrophyKM1]

A2 excited about our student athletes & leaders I get to work with outside of the classroom this year for student government & swim team! And our continued progress on our counseling program & student support #issedu
