About Our Virtual Changemaker Reboot Series
Each month, we’ll dive into a specific topic relevant to the realities of changemaking, from navigating burnout and leading through complexity to the future of DEI and strategies for building conflict competence within ourselves and our movements.
These are donation-based pay-what-you-can sessions designed to be as accessible as possible while still offering the depth, honesty, and practical tools our communities have been asking for. All contributions will be used to keep our April Changemaker Reboot Camp as affordable as possible.
Expect real talk, shared learning, and space to process alongside two seasoned social impact professionals who have navigated burnout and lived to tell the tale(s). These will be designed as 30-minute conversations, with the opportunity for folks to stay for a second half-hour of Q&A, community-building, and reflection.
You’ll walk away with fresh perspectives, tangible strategies, and a stronger sense of community with other changemakers who get it.
Sessions will be live-streamed and recorded unless otherwise noted.

Intergenerational Wisdom: Learning from Seasoned Changemakers
September 12, 2025 (12pm - 1:30pm ET)
The struggles we face today are not new. Across generations, changemakers have resisted injustice, nurtured communities, and reimagined what’s possible. What if we could hear directly from those who have lived this history and continue to lead with courage?
​
As part of the Virtual Changemaker Reboot Series, this virtual session brings together five seasoned elders who have dedicated their lives to justice and community care. They’ll share the untold stories, pivotal lessons, and enduring wisdom that don’t always make it into history books - but can profoundly shape how we sustain ourselves in the work today.
This is more than a panel. It’s an invitation to slow down, listen across generations, and remember that long-term justice work requires long-term care for our communities and for ourselves.
​
You’ll walk away with:
​
-
Stories of resilience and transformation that illuminate the path ahead.
-
Guidance on sustaining your purpose and well-being in demanding times.
-
Practical lessons for navigating today’s challenges in advocacy, leadership, and community care.
-
A renewed sense of connection to the ongoing lineage of social change.
​​
Join us to honor the wisdom of seasoned changemakers and to find inspiration for staying grounded, intentional, and in it for the long haul.
