Fierce Vulnerability Workshop

Fierce Vulnerability envisions a movement that recognizes that injustice is not a political issue, but a manifestation of our collective trauma, and we can’t “shut down” injustice any more than we can “shut down” trauma. Resistance to injustice, therefore, is an attempt at healing our collective wounds. 

Join us in this mini-workshop hosted by YES!, the organization that hosts Jams, as we explore how the work of organizations like Yes! can contribute to creating large scale systemic change in the midst of global collapse of our social, economic and ecological systems. The workshop is also a preview of the upcoming book, Fierce Vulnerability: Healing from Trauma, Emerging through Collapse, which comes out March 25th.

From Coping to Thriving

In times of such urgency, it is important for those working for social change to care for ourselves so we can be at our best. However, capitalism and other forms of separation have taken away our ability to engage in practices that allow us to truly thrive.
