-
- Non-Profit
In this episode of “Leadership Moves” we spoke with Blanca Valentin, a licensed mental health clinician who has practiced in the Boston area for over 20 years. With the application of mindfulness, healing circles, and restorative/transformative approaches Blanca has worked with individuals/families who have experienced trauma, depression, and other social, emotional challenges, including racism, violence, incarceration and those who have suffered injustices and oppression.
Blanca spoke with us about how she invites her staff to bring their healing practices to the workplace, as a way of combating grind culture. Indeed, mental health often carries a stigma for people of color in the workplace. Blanca helps us understand how to normalize, support and empower communities of color to recognize our power and to begin a safe and healthy journey to wellness and self-care in the workplace.
