Are you tired of staying silent about your negative work experience?
Are you done with not being able to sleep or eat because of the stress?
Are you feeling stuck and trying to figure out your next move?
Are you frustrated with bias at work and want tools and support to help you navigate?
Do you feel alone and confused about how you can change your circumstances?
If you answered ‘Yes’ to any of these questions, then the Free My Mind from Racial Stress: A Guide to Reclaiming Me workshop series is right for you. Unfortunately, many people often stay silent about the discrimination they experience in the workplace due to fear, shame, confusion, and lack of knowledge about their options. Overtime, these racialized incidents, whether microaggressions or intentional racist acts, can lead to poor physical and mental health outcomes, career stagnation, and resignation or dismissal. The emotional toll of discrimination can lead to racial stress and in severe cases, racial trauma and impact our emotional, financial, and physical health and interrupts our career trajectory. Remember, you are not alone.
This workshop series is designed with you in mind. We have crafted each workshop to include opportunities for private reflection, building the knowledge base, and coping strategies that provide a blueprint for reclaiming your identity and power. Our goal is to create a safe space for you to release the negative emotions around your workplace hurt; engage in practical activities to help you to establish and/or restore boundaries; practice activities that can help to restore and reclaim you!
