Online tools can be game-changers for enhancing engagement in virtual sessions!

One of my mentors and colleague, Rebecca Cuevas, author of 𝘾𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙨𝙚 𝘿𝙚𝙨𝙞𝙜𝙣 𝙁𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙪𝙡𝙖®: 𝙃𝙤𝙬 𝙩𝙤 𝙏𝙚𝙖𝙘𝙝 𝘼𝙣𝙮𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙤 𝘼𝙣𝙮𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙊𝙣𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙚, recently asked me which online tools I use to boost engagement during my sessions. 💡

I pulled together some strategies that have worked well for me and wanted to share them—not just with Rebecca—but with all of you! 🌟

📌 Mural for Visual Brainstorming – Create a "Self-Care Roadmap" with sticky notes. It’s a great way to foster connection and share ideas in real-time!

📊 Mentimeter for Instant Feedback – Use live word clouds to capture everyone’s mood or initial thoughts. It’s fun and anonymous!

📌 Miro for Collaborative Whiteboarding – Real-time brainstorming with interactive boards where participants can seamlessly collaborate.

🔄 Round-Robin with Stormboard – Ensure everyone shares their thoughts using organized sticky notes.

💬 Zoom Breakout Rooms + Google Docs – Use breakout rooms with Google Docs for collaborative discussions and note-taking.

Now, I’d love to hear from you — what tools do you use? Let’s learn from each other! 💬👇
