What do you do when you lose your steam as a changemaker & your spark dims?
Reconnect—again and again—to your WHY.
What is it you care so deeply about, love so fiercely, that you’re willing to pour your time, energy, and heart into it?
See it. Feel it. Breathe into it.

Anger is a really natural & understandable emotion to have when you're a changemaker, but it's not a sustainable place to work from.
Finding space & tools to work with your anger will transform it from something potentially harming (to yourself or others) into expansive, open-hearted action.
