Introducing…
You’ve been shouldering the weight of everyone’s expectations
of decisions that impact others
of a system that has failed you over
and over
and over…
You’ve carried on
way past empty
way past running on fumes
way past what you
or anyone
can
or should
sustain…
You feel the light fading
the smoke is thickening
it’s hard to see the way forward
wondering if there is any part of you left
after giving
and giving
and giving…
There’s something heavier than lead weighing you down. A sigh from the deeps. Eyelids hover heavy.
Just there. A faint flicker…
We are facing an endemic of burnout among women and LGBTQIA2S Leaders, Directors, Deans, and Executives.
When we reach out…if we reach out…
Society chimes in with a chorus of “do more self care!”
but here’s the thing
Burnout is a systemic wound and systemic harm cannot be tended by the self alone.
We need collective care.
Welcome to Ember,
a space of respite, replenishing, and renewal.
A note from our founder:
I’m alchemizing my 15+ years as a complex systems-trauma specialist and my 25+ years as a leader, organizer and space-holder to present a transformative, neuroinclusive, and liberatory guided process around burnout.
Burnout is spreading like wild-fire and my pattern-recognition brain is seeing the matrix of it all.
We are losing too many brilliant, innovative, intersectional, change-makers to the physical and psychological dangers of systemic burnout.
I have to respond.
Holding space to process and move through the experience in a psychologically safe, lived-experience-centered, neuroinclusive environment is what I have to offer.
The medicinal “me too”s that come with collective tending are what I have to offer.
Deep listening is what I have to offer.
I chose the imagery of an ember because even when all seems destroyed and devastated
often
there remains
a glowing ember.
And with some tending, the right environment, more oxygen
a spark reignites.
Ember is not a cure for burnout.
It is a space for you to be heard, be witnessed, be tended.
You don’t have to be strong here.
You don’t have to carry anyone else here.
You get to just….be.
