2020 was a whirlwind of a year and didn’t show signs of letting up. From a global pandemic to rising social justice movements, people were collectively and individually navigating new norms and traumas.

This past World Mental Health Health Day, Berlin Cameron, Made of Millions and Wethos hosted a discussion about the many stressors we face, and how they play into our work lives and ability to be present, and what we can do to go easy on ourselves & stay emotionally balanced.

Guests heard from industry thought leaders, activists and professionals about the impact repeated exposure to extreme stress had on who we are and how we work. More specifically, panelists discussed:

  • Burnout & how it related to work-from-home stressors and the emotional strain of social justice work

  • Forms of burnout that are specific to BIPOC & how these can show up in the workplace

  • The power of individual and collective self-care & how we can instill these values into workplace expectations and interactions
