A Back to School High School Counselor Pep Talk

This one’s for the veteran counselors needing a pick-me-up as this school year is getting started. Listen to this back-to-school high school counselor pep talk for some relatable realness… but then also some encouragement.   I’m not sure which is harder on a school counselor… the first few weeks or the last few weeks of school. These beginning days are TOUGH. You are a superhuman jack-of-all-trades handling a myriad of issues with style and grace.   You may have forgotten to put on your mascara for your staff ID photo, and you may be hiding your stacks of papers under your desk when parents come in for meetings… but you’ll get it together soon.   No need to right now though. Right now, you’re in survival mode. So give this episode a listen to feel SEEN but also to remember there is a light at the end of the tunnel. You won’t be staring at a computer screen and enrolling new students forever. You’ll be counseling and helping students again in the traditional way that you’re used to SOON enough.   You got this!
