A gentle reminder that yes, this news cycle, like so many news cycles before, is relentless, traumatic & can have repercussions on our mental health. Take time to check in with yourself.

There are resources like the @dartcenter.bsky.social's Journalist Trauma Support Network www.jtsn.org to help.

I had an amazing weekend in Paris studying childhood, migration, trauma and ethical reporting with @columbiajournalism.bsky.social’s @dartcenter.bsky.social. I learned a lot, met great people and it felt really poignant amid aid cuts and an increasingly inhumane migration debate.
