About this event

Community managers are the backbone of vibrant, engaged, and supportive online and offline spaces—but the emotional labor of managing people, conflict, and constant communication can take a toll. This session focuses on the unique mental health challenges faced by community managers, from burnout and boundary-setting to managing empathy fatigue. We'll explore practical self-care strategies, organizational support systems, and ways to prioritize mental well-being while continuing to foster healthy, thriving communities. Whether you're new to the role or a seasoned pro, this discussion will provide tools and insights to help you care for yourself as you care for others.
