SUMMARY:ACGR Webinar 1/ 2026 - Supervisors Who Support
DESCRIPTION:ACGR Webinar 1/ 2026 – Supervisors Who Support: The How of Wellbeing in Higher Degree Research \n\n\n\nHigher degree research is both intellectually rewarding and emotionally demanding. The long timelines\, independence\, uncertainty\, and high expectations placed on Masters and PhD researchers can create unique wellbeing challenges. Within this context\, the supervisor–researcher relationship plays a critical role in shaping not only academic progress but also the overall research experience. \n\n\n\nThis interactive workshop introduces a practical approach to supporting wellbeing in higher degree research through the development of wellbeing literacy — the intentional use of language\, awareness\, and practices that support wellbeing for both supervisors and researchers. At the centre of the workshop is a self-care toolbox framework\, which recognises that no single strategy can address the diverse challenges experienced during the research journey. Instead\, supervisors and researchers benefit from developing a range of approaches that can be drawn upon at different times. The workshop focuses on five dimensions of self-care — self-compassion\, mindful awareness\, time\, habits\, and empowerment — which represent the practical “how” of wellbeing. These dimensions offer accessible entry points for supervisors to engage in supportive conversations\, recognise wellbeing needs\, and help researchers develop sustainable practices across the research journey. \n\n\n\nThrough guided reflection and small-group discussion\, participants will explore how these five dimensions can be applied within supervision contexts and identify practical strategies to support both researcher wellbeing and academic progress. Participants will leave with a practical toolkit of conversation starters\, reflective prompts\, and supervision strategies that help integrate wellbeing literacy into everyday supervisory practice. \n\n\n\nIn this workshop participants will explore: \n\n\n\n\nThe unique wellbeing challenges of Masters and PhD research\n\n\n\nThe concept of wellbeing literacy and its role in supervision\n\n\n\nThe self-care toolbox as a practical framework for supporting research wellbeing\n\n\n\nThe five dimensions of self-care (self-compassion\, mindful awareness\, time\, habits\, and empowerment) as the “how” of wellbeing in practice\n\n\n\nPractical ways to incorporate wellbeing conversations into supervision meetings\n\n\n\nStrategies for fostering sustainable research practices and supportive supervision relationships\n\n\n\n\nPresenter – Professor Narelle Lemon\, Edith Cowan University \n\n\n\nI’m a thought leader in everyday self-care\, and I’m on a mission to translate wellbeing science into practices that actually fit into real life. \n\n\n\nAs Creative Director of Explore & Create Co\, I help individuals and communities explore and create possibilities for their wellbeing – not through quick fixes or Instagram wellness trends\, but through evidence-based strategies grounded in positive psychology and over 30 years of working with people. \n\n\n\nMy path has been beautifully diverse: classroom music teacher\, arts educator\, museum collaborator\, university professor\, researcher\, author\, podcaster\, and positive psychology coach. I’ve worked across early childhood\, schools\, higher education\, arts and cultural organisations\, with public health organisations and non for profits\, and community settings. This breadth has taught me one thing clearly – wellbeing isn’t one-size-fits-all\, but it is something we can all learn. \n\n\n\nI write books\, host podcasts\, create resources\, and run workshops that make self-care accessible and human. I’m particularly passionate about supporting women to prioritise themselves without the guilt. \n\n\n\nI believe the small\, intentional moments of self-care are where real transformation happens.
