💭 Have you ever wondered how nature could help you manage chronic pain and burnout? 💭

After a period of reflection and silence on social media, I am excited to share that my latest article, Color Your Energy: Reclaiming Your Creativity and Wellbeing Amid Chronic Pain and Burnout, has been published today in Apple News and Well-being Magazine! 🎉✨

Drawing from my own journey with chronic back pain and burnout, I introduce a new way of designing your day and managing projects if you’ve been struggling with these issues. The Color Your Energy approach complements the Spoon Theory but is distinct in viewing the flow of energy throughout the day as a spectrum. This perspective allows you to make compassionate choices, anchoring each hour around rest or work.

📖 Dive in to discover how aligning with nature, imagining yourself as a particle in a wave, and designing your day with intention can enhance your well-being.

🌟 Reclaim Your Story with the Power of the Pen Retreat 🌟

“There’s something profoundly healing about taking control of your story—acknowledging your pain, embracing it, and slowly reclaiming the parts of you that were lost.”

Through my recent essay in OC87 Recovery Diaries, I shared my journey of reclaiming my narrative about my experience at Harvard. This essay not only addresses the exploitation of my research but also paves the way for affirmative actions and advocacy: https://oc87recoverydiaries.org/burnout/

Now, I want to guide and empower others to reclaim their own stories. I invite you to join me for a transformative 4-week online writing retreat from October 25th to November 21st, 2024. We’ll use mindfulness meditation, self-compassion, deep listening, and positive neuroplasticity to delve into past traumas and find healing through writing.

Are you aware of the insidious impact workplace bullying can have on an individual's mental health and overall well-being? It's a pervasive issue that often goes unnoticed or unaddressed, yet its consequences can be devastating.

Workplace bullying not only inflicts emotional wounds but also takes a toll on a worker's sense of self-worth and identity. Constant exposure to hostile behaviours, such as verbal abuse, intimidation, or exclusion, can erode one's confidence and self-esteem, leaving them feeling powerless and isolated.

Moreover, the prolonged stress and anxiety caused by workplace bullying can lead to emotional exhaustion and burnout. The relentless pressure to perform in a toxic environment can drain an individual's energy and resilience, making it challenging to cope with everyday tasks and responsibilities. As a result, their mental and physical health may suffer, further exacerbating feelings of despair and hopelessness.

At times like these, it's crucial to seek support and guidance to navigate through the challenges and reclaim your sense of self. That's where I come in. As a coach specializing in advocacy burnout recovery, I'm here to help you regain control of your narrative and strengthen your inner sanctuary.

Through personalized 1:1 coaching sessions, I work closely with my clients to:

1) Own Their Narrative: Together, we explore your experiences and emotions, allowing you to reclaim your story and assert your boundaries. By understanding the dynamics of workplace bullying and its impact on your well-being, you can begin to rewrite your narrative with confidence and resilience.

2) Strengthen Their Inner Sanctuary: We delve into mindfulness practices, self-care techniques, and positive affirmations to cultivate a nurturing and supportive inner environment. By prioritizing your mental and emotional health, you can build a resilient foundation that empowers you to face adversity with grace and courage.

If you're ready to break free from the grip of workplace bullying and embark on a journey of healing and empowerment, I invite you to sign up for a complimentary 1:1 breakthrough call. Together, we'll explore your challenges, goals, and aspirations, and chart a path towards a brighter and more fulfilling future.

Don't let workplace bullying dim your light. Take the first step towards reclaiming your power and well-being today. Sign up for your breakthrough call and let's walk this path together.

In my journey as a Pakistani woman navigating the world of academia and advocating for my cultural traditions through conference presentations and performances internationally, I've encountered my fair share of burnout. It's not just the workload but the additional layers of navigating systemic biases and stereotypes about Pakistan that compound the exhaustion.

It is a result of these biases that my 10+ years of ethnographic research and analysis that was conducted with the mentorship of a distinguished scholar of South Asian Music: Prof. Regula Burckhardt Qureshi remains unpublished.

I continue to face challenges with toxic editors and peer reviewers who attempt to impose their biases onto my work and insert their viewpoints into my publications so much so that I end up withdrawing it completely.

As an underrepresented identity in many spaces, it's crucial to acknowledge how these factors contribute to burnout and address them collectively.

Here's an article that I wrote: NAVIGATING BURNOUT THROUGH AN INTERSECTIONAL LENS: UNDERSTANDING DIVERSE EXPERIENCES.

🔍 This insightful blog explores how the experience of differs across , shedding light on why individuals with under-represented identities are more susceptible. Learn about the intersectionality of burnout and , and discover practical strategies for resilience.

We invite you to share how your underrepresented identities impact your experience of burnout. Your insights can help us better understand and address the unique challenges faced by individuals from backgrounds.

Join the conversation and share your stories. Together, we can create a more inclusive and supportive community where every voice is heard and valued.

Together, let's break the silence and shine a light on the intersectionality of burnout. Share your experiences and let's learn from each other.
