Kriti Vashisht - Assistant Professor
Serving Me, so I can Serve You!
Have you encountered challenges in balancing your role as a social justice advocate/activist, while trying to practice self-care and perseverance? I am here to talk about how we can best position our roles in social justice causes, so that the spotlight stays on the cause instead of us, and also why we must make sure we “put on our own oxygen masks first before assisting others.”
