Fund Our Project
Our Why
Like many early career educators, I was passionate and dedicated to my career and thought I would stay forever. After a few years, I experienced burnout and compassion fatigue. Not only was I stressed, but my colleagues were too. My office became an occasional space for teachers and staff to vent, rant, and share war stories or hugs. Although I've moved on, I understand the daily stress teachers and staff encounter. It's not a job for the faint of heart. My fellow educators and clients inspired our new project, The Wellness Room Sacred Spaces.
Our Mission
The Wellness Room Sacred Spaces project aims to help people achieve optimal wellness by providing short-term rental properties for guests to enhance their well-being. Research shows that burnout and compassion fatigue negatively impact individuals' mental health and well-being (Fothergill et al.,2004; The American Institute of Stress, n.d.). We improve overall well-being by providing wellness spaces for guests to reduce burnout and compassion fatigue. Our luxury multiuse facility will feature customized modular structures include wellness-themed accommodations, wellness-centered amenities and activities, local wellness guidebook, and a wellness toolkit to increase mental health, wellness, and self-care.
Our Vision
To create a luxury multi-use facility including wellness-themed short-term rental properties that help people and businesses with personalized wellness solutions that increase overall well-being, improve work-life balance, and restore peace of mind.
Fun Fact
I designed a wellness space for teachers and staff while working as a school counselor. Consequently, I received Kaiser Permanente's Thriving Schools Honor Roll Award in 2018.
