As a woman of color in academia, the balance between personal and professional life is exceptionally challenging, often leading to neglect of well-being and resulting in burnout.
The slow living movement advocates for mindfulness and intentional choices, countering the pressures of academia with a focus on well-being and self-care for women of color.
