January 21st, 2026 at 5pm UTC - Radical Optimism Vision Board Session
​
2026 is ushering in another period of uncertainty and instability at a global level, and so many of us are feeling this at a visceral level. Do we really need to burden ourselves with more of the toxic individuality narrative and the need to “fix” ourselves as we move into the new year? Rather than start 2026 with a dose of stress hormones and an I-am-not-good-enough mindset, join us for a wellness session on reflection, imagination, and radical optimism!
Format: Self-reflection with optional breakout sessions
Suggested supplies: Something to write, draw, and/or collage with either physically or digitally!
February 18th, 2026 at 5pm UTC - Navigating Boundaries and Bonds in Organizing and Humanitarian Work
​
February is the month of love, and one of the most underappreciated and difficult aspects of engaging in healthy, loving relationships with the people and the work around us is the ability to set healthy boundaries. This wellness session will provide tools, insights, and reflections on how we can create bonds and boundaries that allow us to sustain meaningful relationships and meaningful engagement in humanitarian work and social justice organizing.
Format: Self-reflection and small group activities in breakout rooms
Suggested supplies: A pen and paper to take notes and respond to reflection questions
March 18th, 2026 at 4pm UTC - Rest as Resistance
In the midst of hustle and burnout culture, how can we create a revolutionary rest practice for ourselves and our communities? The sacred act of resting and resisting outside forces that want us to work to the point of exhaustion is a small act of defiance that can have massive ripple effects. Join us for an hour of learning about the seven types of rest and how to cultivate a culture of rest and regeneration in our lives and communities.
Format: Self-reflection and small group activities in breakout rooms
Suggested supplies: A pen and paper to take notes and respond to reflection questions
April 22nd, 2026 at 4pm UTC - Healing Properties of Earth and the Elements
In celebration of Earth Day, April’s Wellness Session will encourage us to reconnect with nature and our symbiotic role within the ecosystem. As we reflect on our state of belonging and coexistence, we will make a personal reclamation piece from our reflections. This is an art piece that is meant to be reclaimed by nature.
Format: Large group reflection and discussion
Suggested supplies: We recommend you spend some time in nature before the session and gather some items that inspire you to use for your art project. Also consider using biodegradable paper, paints, adhesives, and other materials for your project

Embracing the Power of Your Identity: In a world that rewards conformity - especially the kind shaped by whiteness, maleness, and dominance - how do you show up as your full self? Join us for a conversation on leveraging your identity in spaces that weren’t built for you, resisting the urge to shrink yourself to fit, and reclaiming the strength that lives in your uniqueness.
Sacred Grief: Grief is sacred. So is your work. This month, we gather to honor the quiet sorrow that lives in our field—what we’ve witnessed, what we’ve buried, and what we’re still learning to process and understand. For those who hold stories of loss, cross borders with others, and carry more than what’s visible—this space is for you. Come breathe. Be witnessed. And remember: your heart is not a liability—it’s a compass.
Herbalism, Witchcraft, and Rituals: Let’s tap into the indigenous wisdom of the natural world—through herbalism, ritual, and connection with the plants that nourish and protect us. We’re embracing our inner witches, reclaiming spiritual practices rooted in care and resistance, and remembering that healing doesn’t come from systems—it comes from the earth, community. Come curious. Come barefoot. Come ready to steep in something sacred.
Moral Injury Peer Support Group Session: In-Sight Collaborative's Emily Reznicek and Madi Williamson lead session to introduce the concept of moral injury and how to start the conversation with yourself and your peers.
