In this third segment of the 4-part series on well-being, Jennifer Hogan and Allyson Apsey discuss taking steps to have healthy bodies and healthy minds. Join Jennifer and Allyson on their journey to well-being.

Well-being is listening to your heart, your mind and your body and then taking specific action based on what you hear. This careful listening and action steps lead to us becoming the best version of ourselves. This contributes to our own personal satisfaction with life and allows us to be the people we want to be for everyone around us. The roadmap to personal well-being looks different for everyone, but there are some universal truths and ideas that can help us all. We look forward to exploring them in this four-part series. This is part three in our series. We'll talk about self-efficacy and how it impacts our well-being.

In this episode you'll discover:

-The top three responses educators across the country give as their answer to the question, "What might make a teacher feel unsafe at school?"

-The definition of self-efficacy by psychologist Albert Bandura, whose social learning theory is used in classrooms today.

-How goal-setting, positive affirmations, and William Glasser's Behavior Car can help improve self-efficacy

-A simple yet powerful "Reflection & Projection" exercise that can be added to one's self-efficacy toolbox.
