Abstract:
This thesis follows my journey as an educator to find purpose and fulfillment in a career whose demands make it challenging to maintain balance between work and life. The mental, emotional, and physical energy that working in a 'helping' or 'giving' profession demands often poses a threat to valuable personal and family time, as well as a struggle to keep professionals working in these fields.
