Limited tickets now live.

The topic we’re discussing this quarter (+ that our experts + counsellors are guiding us on) is a whopper — Moral Injury + Boundaries. ☀️

The title “moral injury” may sound less familiar, but the emotion surrounding it is a part of daily life for many. There are endless instances in any community that require folks to act or witness moments that conflict with morals or beliefs.☀️

Whether facing burnout, witnessing suffering on the news (or in your own city), a healthcare worker or teacher in moral conflict with requirements to do a job… moral injury can leave us experiencing guilt, helplessness, stress, depression, + beyond. ☀️

Our OPEN SPACE series is a place to offer community support + guidance to help answer questions like:
How can our work/jobs be sustainable while experiencing moral injury? How can we be helpful while also protecting ourselves with boundaries in order to be of service to our people/community? ☀️

This next OPEN SPACE is for YOU. Join us in learning. ☀️]]> https://www.thedistrictphotographer.com/blogs/events-and-showcases/open-space 2024-02-12T10:15:41-08:00 2024-02-12T10:27:05-08:00 Open Space Matt Ferguson We are thrilled to bring you Part 2 of our ‘Open Space’ Series In collaboration with @thirdspacecharity, we invite you to join us at thedistrictphotographer Lifestyle for an evening dedicated to mental health with a focus on the topic of ‘Burnout + Stress'⁠Our Third Space Hosted Panel Discussion features three community experts; Barb Egan, Ed Weiss + Sharlene O’Reilly— who will share their invaluable insights on stress vs burnout.
