We’re witnessing a lot of fear and uncertainty right now — especially for immigrants and other vulnerable communities. If you’re someone who cares deeply, it’s easy to go into overdrive trying to help everyone else first.
But here’s the truth: you can’t pour from an empty cup.
👣 Start with grounding yourself — rest, breathe, hydrate, and reconnect with what’s safe and steady.
🤝 Then, take action in sustainable ways: donate to verified legal aid orgs, share accurate information, show up to community events, or simply check in on someone who might be scared right now.
🕊️ Remember: empathy is powerful, but endurance takes care.
Fill your own cup first, then help refill someone else’s. 🌿 Assess your capacity and be kind to yourself.
