What is balance? with Tristan Katz
What is balance?
Join us in honest conversation with writer, educator, digital strategist and equity-inclusion facilitator, Tristan Katz (they/he) as we explore questions at the heart of activism, impact and self care.
Tristan holds space for learning and unlearning about gender as it relates to trans inclusion and queer competency, and teaches marketing practices to foster business growth from a justice and equity-focused perspective. They have been named one of Yoga Journal’s 2021 Game Changers. They serve on the Board of Directors at Accessible Yoga—a non-profit working, through education and advocacy, to share the teachings and benefits of yoga with those who have been marginalized, and to identify and remove barriers to access, build strong networks, and advocate for an accessible, equitable yoga culture.
We first met Tristan in 2021, and with so much mission and vision alignment, immediately dove head first into collaborations. BWB has learned so much about how to create safer spaces and deeply engage in solidarity work through their trans inclusion counsel.
In 2021, Tristan spoke at a BWB conference on a panel titled: Activism in Action: Centering Impact. The conversation was so epic that we decided to start this conversation from some of the seeds and lingering tendrils of that discussion.
In this episode you’ll hear:
What it means to show up in solidarity work and activism
How their very existence can be seen as activism
The journey to find balance in the working to live and living to work equation
How they are learning to truly take care of themself
Why finding joy is more important at the end of the day than committing yourself to working
