The Fellows Session: Have a Reviving Conversation with an MOBTS Fellow

Keywords: spirit revival, pandemic discussions, restorative, reflection, empathy

Abstract: Pleasant, spontaneous, conversations with our most seasoned MOBTS friends have always been a hallmark of our Annual Conferences; times to shed some woes and kindle fresh hopes. We MOBTS Fellows gratefully benefitted by such spirit-reviving conversations along our teaching journeys. Few of us ever had to endure the pressures and uncertainties of this pandemic era. So, we offer this modest, but heartfelt, time to recreate the spirit of treasured restorative exchanges. Each Fellow will host a small number of conferees in a breakout room to carefully listen and respond. We will experience, once again, the value of reflection and empathy.
