Guarding the Archives: Cultural Work & Mental Wellness

How do we care for our minds when the work we do involves the wounds of the past?In this powerful episode, we’re joined by Anisha, a cultural curator, educator, and storyteller who opens up about the emotional toll of engaging with deeply historical content — especially when those stories carry inherited trauma, injustice, and grief.🧠✨ Anisha speaks about the unseen weight that can come with preserving cultural memory and why protecting your mental and emotional space is non-negotiable in this kind of work. From curatorial burnout to finding joy in the archives, this is an honest look at the intersection of history, heritage, and healing.
