SIETAR USA Coffee Hour Compassion Chat
Thursday, February 19th
9:00 AM - 10:30 AM PST
12:00 PM – 1:30 PM EST
The start of 2026 has ushered in profound change and upheaval, leaving many of us having to cope with a deep sense of collective uncertainty and trauma. As interculturalists, our work often requires us to hold space to help others navigate cultural complexities, yet we too are impacted and in need of support, connection, and renewal. Join us for the next SIETAR USA Coffee Hour where we will facilitate a Compassion Chat to create an empathic and psychologically safe space to come together and share how we are practicing self-care and trying to strengthen resilience and community through our work during these challenging times.
Facilitators: Sue Shinomiya and Julia Gaspar-Bates
This Coffee Chat / Listening Circle is open to all SIETAR USA members, and global SIETAR members. Global members need to email info@sietarusa.org to get access code to attend for free.
