Title: Self-Care Reality Check: Breaking Free from the Faux-Fix
Lead Presenter: Elyse Sewell
Date: October 27, 2025    Time: 9:15 am - 10:15 am
Room: Neopolitan IV, Promenade Level
Abstract: In the high-pressure world of academic advising, self-care often takes a backseat to professional responsibilities. This presentation will explore the difference between genuine self-care and its superficial counterpart, 'faux' self-care, which offers only temporary relief. Through real-life experiences and practical insights, I will highlight the importance of meaningful self-care practices that foster long-term well-being, resilience, and job satisfaction. Attendees will walk away with actionable strategies that go beyond common self-care cliches, helping to prevent burnout and sustain motivation. By prioritizing intentional self-care, advisors can enhance both their effectiveness and personal fulfillment in their roles.
