6 friendly reminders for #StressAwarenessDay: 1. You don't have to do everything. Delegate. Say "no". 2. Rest is (a key) part of the process. 3. Asking for support doesn't mean you're bad at something. 4. Disconnecting (from social media) can help you reconnect to what matters (the people around you). 5. A simple way to calm your nervous system: stop rushing. Take a deep breath. 6. Prioritise you - you're more important than your organisation. How have you been managing your stress levels lately (if at all)? 💚 P.S. Access reliable, affordable support for your org here: https://lnkd.in/eJ-MCT-U

From Fixer to Multiplier: The Key to Building Resilient Charity Teams 🌱 Many of us leading small charities are used to wearing all the hats, filling the gaps, and doing all of the tasks that aren't on other people's job descriptions. This often leads to burnout for leaders and unfulfilment for our teams - but stepping back and empowering our teams to grow can change everything. In my new blog for Fair Collective, I explore how moving from a “fixer” to a “multiplier” mindset can make a real difference for both your team and your own wellbeing. Here’s a sneak peek of what you’ll find: 🌟 How to encourage your team to take ownership 🌟 Tailoring support to help people thrive 🌟 Giving feedback that actually inspires improvement Curious to know more?
