Leave work at your contracted time. Don’t bring your work computer home with you. Close your door as needed for breaks. Don’t give out your cell phone number to students. 

What do all of these things have in common? They’re examples of boundaries that you might be setting as a high school counselor to avoid burnout. However, as you probably know, setting boundaries with others is easier said than done. 

We’re natural helpers as school counselors (some of us to a fault). This often shows up as us not following through on the boundaries we’ve set for ourselves, which can lead to burnout and job resentment very quickly. As your high school counseling hype girl, I’m here to tell you that if we’re not defining our own boundaries, somebody else will!

In today’s episode, you’ll hear how setting and following through on boundaries will ultimately lead to higher job satisfaction. Plus, you’ll hear practical tips for combating burnout from listeners like you!
