REFLECTION RESTORATION RESILIENCE
Mitigating Burnout for Nonprofit and Community Leaders
Since 2020, we have become increasingly concerned about our people: the social impact, nonprofit and community leaders who are the vanguard of care in our communities. We've wondered, ‘what happens when they can’t carry the weight of caring for us anymore? When the physical, emotional, and mental toll of the work is too much to bare?’ Dharma Collaborative was founded to to address this concern.
Our Story
Warrior women very rarely slow down and pour into themselves. We go and go and go and empty ourselves before we even realize it's happening. Suddenly we are slumped and hunched and we look up and think "how did I even get here?"
As I sat on my yoga mat and listened to Francie's breathing prompts I started to find my "other self," the one that knows how to slow down. She knows how to listen to her intuition. She knows how to meet others with grace and patience. She knows self-love. I came home after 3 days that felt like three (amazing!) years and that "other self," the real me, is here to stay. And if she fades away or hides again, back to to the retreat I go to find her again.

We commit to our own healing in part because the realization of what we are dreaming of rests on it.
