CPD Development Day: Open to all
20th of July 2026: 9.15 am - 4.30 pm
Delivered virtually
Limited places to maintain quality and depth
Drawing on the BE HUMAN Model and Carolyn’s honest, real world insight, this full day workshop creates space to explore the emotional realities of working in challenging environments, and how these experiences shape how we think, feel and respond. This is not about removing emotion from our work. It is about understanding it, working with it, and protecting the empathy that sits at the heart of what we do. Beyond our roles, we also explore personal psychological flexibility, recognising our own patterns, and reframing how we understand challenge and success.
What makes this day different
The morning session focuses on empathy as the starting point.
We explore:
-
Why empathy matters, not just for those we support, but for our own wellbeing
-
How emotional exposure, pressure and responsibility can quietly erode empathy over time
-
The link between empathy, emotional load, and the risk of compassion fatigue
From here, the day builds into practical and reflective positive psychology and resilience, what it is and what it isn't.
Not as a concept of “pushing through” but as the ability to:
-
recognise our emotional state
-
understand what is influencing it
-
respond in a way that protects both ourselves and others
What you will gain
