About the Event
As we live in this isolated time, some of us may find ourselves getting emotionally triggered more often. Emotional triggers may come from what we feel vulnerable about, but how do we navigate them or how have we learned to cope with it? How often do you talk about it?
We are bringing on Jess Song from Back To Self to open up a conversation and bring us to a journey of understanding our emotion and feelings.
Bring a cup of tea, find your quiet space away from your close quarter, and open up Zoom to chat with us!

About Jess Song:
Jess spent 10+ years incorporating counseling and emotional development frameworks into non-profit and education programs for underserved / immigrant / 2nd generation / trauma-surviving youth (and the adults working with them). She focuses her curriculum on emotional language, core values, communication/advocacy, and healthy relationships.
Jess founded Back to Self to help shift how we approach our emotional selves through journaling, aiming to provide perspective-shifting frameworks in an affordable, practical, and applicable way. She invites a much-needed dialogue on the relationship between culture, community, identity, and the impact intersecting worlds have on our emotional and mental well-being.
