Fall Awake Podcast

As a product of the feminist movement, international women’s day was created to resist the patriarchal system and fight for women’s equal rights.

However, one should wonder how a western concept encompasses the global realities of all women. How do marginalized women, indigenous women, black women or women in developing countries fit into this concept.

Join us tomorrow for a live session where will discuss the contributions of woman’s day to our current experience as well as its limitations.

This Thursday we will be facilitating a workshop at Elizabeth House, which is a rehabilitation centre offering a continuum of intervention and support services to families with children aged 0-5 years, on the intervention and prevention of microaggressions and racial discrimination within the workplace.

The goal of this workshop is to help participants understand how racial biases towards black people develops and how they lead to microaggressions and discrimination. Moreover, employees and managers will be provided with tools and strategies for appropriate intervention and prevention.

The first month of the new year is coming to an end and we want to know, is it still new year, new you?

Are you still pretending to be different people every year? Or have you finally accepted who you are and decided to make conscious decisions to be better?

Are you still setting goals that feel unattainable and getting discouraged when and if you don’t reach them? Or have you learned that slow progress is better than no progress?

We want to hear from you!

Tune in Sunday January 29th 2023 at 3:00PM on IG live for another interactive session where we demystify new year’s resolutions.

Mental health impacts all of us, whether directly or indirectly, and in a plethora of ways. The unfortunate reality of mental health concerns, illnesses, and disorders, is that many are undiagnosed or misdiagnosed, there is a prevalent issue of stigmatization, and systemic inequalities impact the way certain marginalized communities access resources and social support.

Tune in to episode #4 of the Fall Awake Podcast coming this week, as your hosts talk about mental health, provide valuable research and information on the topic, and open up about their own experiences with mental health issues.
