Many of us entered movement work out of urgency and many of us are exhausted by it. The Resilience Toolkit offers an embodied, justice-aligned framework for sustaining activism over the long arc of the struggle. Rather than treating burnout, reactivity and conflict as personal failures, The Toolkit helps us understand them as predictable stress and trauma responses - and equips us with real-time regulation skills that expand our capacity to stay engaged without collapse or numbness.
Together, we’ll explore: How stress and trauma shape movement behavior (withdrawal, escalation, fracture) and how embodied stabilization interrupts those patterns in real time
Embodied solidarity: how listening, repair, and collective care become possible only when the nervous system has enough bandwidth
Rest and joy as conditions of political strategy, not rewards for after the work is done
Practical tools to increase steadiness and discernment into movement, organizing, and mutual aid work
This conversation connects the inner work of healing and reflection with the outer work of solidarity and action — helping us build movements that are both resilient and humane.
“How we breathe, listen, rest, and relate is political.”
Whether you’re a longtime organizer, new to activism, or simply seeking to live your values more fully, this session offers inspiration and embodied tools to help you put solidarity into action every day.
