Worklife Matters: Optimizing Your Environment & Mental Health

August 1, 2023 @ 6:00 PM - 8:30 PM EDT

$20

To finally recognize our own invisibility is to finally be on the path toward visibility. Invisibility is not a natural state for anyone.

— Mitsuye Yamada, “Invisibility Is An Unnatural Disaster: Reflections of an Asian American Woman”

The question then becomes – where and how do we begin this journey of self-advocacy? We believe it starts with community.

WIN NAAAP-NY, ACE Next Gen, and Prime Produce invite you, our AAPI female professionals and allies, to join us for this special networking event featuring a powerful panel of experts in areas ranging from career coaching to vibrational health.

Whether you are just beginning to seek ways to improve the quality of work life, or far along in your journey of cultivating mental health at work, our hope is to leave you with a sense of renewed solidarity and practical advice to apply to your own work environment.
