Abstract: 

Higher Education professionals, including Academic Advisers, experience burnout at a much higher rate than the general population in the United States. They are also less likely to take all their vacation time. This session will focus on ways for advisers to feel less guilty about taking vacation time and will look at best practices for setting boundaries and sticking to them. Who knows? Maybe this session will inspire you to start planning your next vacation!
