Grounded in the Lifecycle of Microaggressions Framework™, a four-step model, the session explores how race-related harm accumulates over time and impacts emotional wellbeing, identity, and professional sustainability. Using this framework, participants engage key concepts such as emotional taxation, professional invisibility, and the full life cycle of microaggressions, while accessing language and tools to name harm without self-blame and respond with clarity rather than collapse. Through guided group reflection and somatic practice suggestions, the workshop centers healing as strategy and community as resource, equipping participants to navigate institutional harm while sustaining wellbeing, agency, and belonging. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/678564241e5bcd42a5050120/1770140202770-CFDAH5CZTSXA2C3JHMBE/Uchenna+Baker+Headshot.jpg Events - Reclaiming Our Rest Conference - Dr. Uchenna Baker Founder and Executive Director of Scholars in Solidarity. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/678564241e5bcd42a5050120/1770142034544-9GIQ0GWM4G8Y02N90V90/T.+Scarborough.jpg Events - Reclaiming Our Rest Conference - Latisha “Tish” Scarborough Ambition by Design: How Women Build Influence, Visibility, and Career Mobility in the AI Era In higher education, women are carrying a growing load of visible work, invisible labor, and now a wave of AI and technology on top of it all.

We’ll look at how technology is changing what gets seen and rewarded, and introduce an “Ambition by Design” framework focused on revaluing your labor, reading power and coalitions more clearly, and designing real options for the next 2–3 years, with AI as a quiet thinking partner rather than one more demand. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/678564241e5bcd42a5050120/1773344860854-ZIVBEM4YPDVG18R0VJEN/TCM+Headshot+2026.jpeg Events - Reclaiming Our Rest Conference - Tamika Caston-Miller, Founder Ashe Yoga Collective · Morning Joyful Flow Yoga: Get your body and mind prepared for a day of expansion with thoughtfully curated movement for all levels and bodies.
