The #LunchtimeSession entitled ‘Cultivating Awareness & Resilience in Educational Leadership’, took place on Wednesday 18th February 2026.

The focus of the session was on a research study which explores educational leader wellbeing across the US, UK and Australia, examining how an adapted version of the CARE program supports leaders’ resilience, wellbeing, and leadership skills.

Originally designed to help educators manage stress and burnout, CARE has shown a myriad of benefits. Recent studies suggest CARE-EL can help leaders improve leadership skills, self -reflection, and self -care.

The session took place as a roundtable discussion, Chaired by Deb Outhwaite, and featured a guest panel who are involved in mindfulness work in the UK and US.

The panel consists of:

  • Sebrina Doyle Fosco
  • Maggie Farrar
  • Claire Kelly  
  • Todd Cantrell
