First Steps help equity-minded leaders reconnect with purpose, resilience, and hope in challenging times.
You’ve been doing the work. You believe in it. You’ve seen progress — and harm. And lately, it feels heavier: funders pulling back, public backlash growing, colleagues retreating.
You haven’t lost your belief in the work, but your energy, hope, or direction might feel dim.
In First Steps, we’ll:
Create space to breathe and name what’s hard – Burnout thrives in silence; we’ll talk openly about fatigue, grief, and frustration without judgment.
Revisit your roots – We’ll reconnect with your “why,” the values and experiences that called you to this work in the first place.
Reclaim agency and renewal – Together we’ll identify practices and boundaries that restore your energy, build community, and remind you that you’re not alone.
First Steps offers a place to pause, re-root, and remember that this work is communal, not solitary.
You don’t have to hold it all alone.
