Intersectional Identities

Navigating day-to-day racism, discrimination and micro-aggressions requires a whole other level of emotional labour for individuals with intersecting experiences of marginalization. 

​

​Your mental health and emotional safety may be impacted if you are:

​

• Masking

• Peacemaking

• Managing anger

• Teaching

• Tolerating

• Apeasing

• Picking battles

• Not sleeping well

​

Racism, discrimination, sexism, and microagressesions can happen anywhere; at home, work, school, the mall, grocery store, doctors office, hospital...in pretty much all aspects of life.​ Whether you are an immigrant, have immigrant parents, have a disability, are part of the 2S+LGBTQIA community, a Person of Colour, Black, Indigenous, low income, a woman, and/or speak English as an additional language, these experiences are exhausting, frustrating, angering, hurtful, and traumatic.
