It's been a hot minute, so please allow me to (re) introduce myself to you ;)
Hi, I'm Jessi Andricks, a school-based SLP, yoga teacher, and a passionate advocate for well-being in our demanding professions. I believe in rights for all, that our voices matter, advocacy is essential, and feeding starving children and families and supporting those in our community is our duty as humans. And empathy is everything.
For years, I've been dedicated to helping fellow Speech-Language Pathologists and educators navigate the unique challenges of our field, manage stress, and prevent burnout. As a proud member of the Special Education team, I understand firsthand the daily pressures you face.
Now I focus on not only navigating the demands and pressures in the field, but also bringing more mindfulness and stress reduction to students and clients, as well as creating simple, easy to use, and fun resources for your speech room, classroom, or home!
You might know me as the host of the SLP Stress Management Podcast, where I share real-world tips, a bit of science, and my own journey to finding more balance. I'm also the creator of CEU courses available on platforms like @ aka
SpeechPathology.com, , and where I delve deeper into stress management, mindfulness, and self-care strategies tailored specifically for SLPs. Beyond that, I'm an author and a mindfulness instructor, always seeking new ways to bring calm and focus into our lives.
My goal, whether through my presentations, my podcast, or my courses, is to empower you to find more joy and connection in your day-to-day, both in and out of your vital work. I'm so glad to connect with you all!
What is new with your life, in and out of being an SLP?
Kindness Forever,
Jessi
