We're kicking off our 2022 programming with something extremely important to us, but often ignored in the design community, wellness. A Washington Post writeup on universal burnout writes "to fix burnout, people need to address the stress itself. They must allow their body to complete its stress response cycle. Instead, people tend to focus on stressors."Â
So, we're addressing stress, collectively! Bring a mat & come join us as we host our first wellness wrkshp, a dsgnrswrkshp series curated to provide resources and dialogue to heal our creative family. As usual, we've tapped into the community for some some guidance & support. Meet our Q1 wellness team below, Margeaux House & KAMAUU!
