Practical skills for Activism Fatigue
Let’s be honest: things seem to be getting worse. On the mat or on the massage table, I see a lot of repetitive stress and overwhelming anxiety about the state of the world. We are all tired and yet, I truly believe, there is still so much we can do….
For this reason I am working with the School of Unlearning Berlin to create resources for changemakers – to support those of us who are trying to make this world a little less scary and confusing and a lot more equal for all of us. But we need to get to the root of our issues and we need to do it together.
What is Resourcing for Changemakers?
Resourcing for Changemakers is a 10-week course providing advanced tools for resilience by bringing together a diverse community of changemakers to practice a more resourced (supported) and relationally healthy (boundaried) kind of activism.
This course will help you to:
- Contextualize our individual struggles – we are in this together
- Heal internalized systemic oppression
- Resource everyone in the context of relationship
This course is for you, if you…
- want to change the world but are frustrated with the current models
- feel there is a missing link between personal and collective responsibility
- understand that we can’t apply simple solutions to complex problems
- are exhausted by how dysfunctional relationships negatively affect impact work
- believe that diverse input is key to designing alternative futures
- wish for dogma free ways to expand your perspective in this time
- sense that there is grief inside any process that would produce a real shift
- are brave enough to face your own blind spots
Format & Facilitation for Resourcing for Changemakers:
Led by 8 facilitators, this 10-week Resourcing for Changemakers online program explores embodied approaches to personal and collective liberation through 2.5-hour sessions. Together, we’ll address the main exports of the Empire (systems of oppression) while working through them in a safe(r) relational container. I am honored to be co-facilitating 6 of the 10 sessions in this course and to learn alongside my incredible co-facilitators.
