S5E3: Fighting Fatigue: Balancing exhaust and energy in the quest to eradicate racism

Naked Conversations: Race, Culture, & Beyond

In this episode we continue our conversation around colorism in addition to balancing fatigue and exhaustion in our everyday life with doing the work to eradicate racism while practicing self care. For our culture topic today, we delve into “The Vanishing Half” by Brit Brenett and its representation of how we view color.

We share:

• Navigating feeling tired and wanting space
• The balance point between rest and action
• How we are keeping the work going while cultivating self care

Our world continues to become more complex and often time draining, it is important that we take care of ourselves and those closest to us.
