Hey Reader,

If you're really feeling the weight of this moment, you're not alone.

With shifting budgets, layoffs, policy changes, climate anxiety, and global unrest, the pressure on changemakers like you has never been heavier.

Whether you’re a fundraiser, CEO, executive director, people manager, board member, or movement leader—it’s time to pause and refill your cup.

Slowing down isn’t selfish—it’s strategic. Your well-being isn’t optional right now. It’s essential.

That's why I'm offering a free Mini-Retreat Series for Changemakers.

Join us for a free, 3-part series of 45-minute drop-in mini-retreats designed to help you replenish your energy and restore your focus—so you can end the year strong.

These are not lectures, slides, or strategy sessions. They’re guided restorative experiences to help you ground, reflect, and reconnect with your purpose—so you can keep doing the work that matters.

Feel free to invite a friend or colleague. Learn more and register at https://signup.mindfultechie.com/miniretreat.

This free series is designed for mission-driven leaders seeking support in refueling and navigating times of change and uncertainty. If you're a mission-driven leader, fundraiser, CEO, executive director, people manager, board member, or movement leader, this series is for you.

Join us August 10, 17, 24 | 4:05–4:50 PM ET | LIVE on Zoom.

Each session of this free series will explore a pillar of the theme: RESET. RESTORE. REPLENISH.

​Come to one session or attend them all—just show up as you are. No prep or prior attendance required. ​

What we’ll cover:

• Practical ideas for cultivating a culture of care and sustainability within your team
• Simple well-being practices you can return to throughout the year
• A supportive space to rest and recharge with fellow changemakers

About Your Facilitator

Hello Changemaker! It’s nice to meet you. I’m Meico Marquette Whitlock.

Imagine a world where leaders and teams don’t just grind through the day but thrive in their work, without sacrificing their well-being. That’s the world I’m working to create.

I’m here to help you embody what it means to truly thrive and know your well-being is your greatest asset.

As a workplace well-being strategist, I’m on a mission to help purpose-driven leaders rewrite the narrative of success. I believe that impactful work doesn’t have to come at the cost of your health or happiness, and I’ve made it my life’s work to show you how.

I’m the founder and CEO of Mindful Techie, author of How to Thrive When Work Doesn’t Love You Back and The Intention Planner, and a certified trauma-informed mindfulness teacher.

I partner with mission-driven organizations to create cultures where belonging, balance, and purpose take center stage. In a world full of burnout and overwhelm, I help you navigate life, work, and technology in harmony.

During my previous career in the tech, nonprofit, and government sectors, I experienced more than my fair share of burnout and overwhelm in the name of making a difference. As a recovering workaholic, I use what I’ve learned to help changemakers like you make an impact without self-sacrifice.

I partner with you to create strategies and deliver programs that help your team scale impact while sustaining the right balance between life, work, and technology in today’s changing world.

I have worked with organizations such as the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Cigna, and Greenpeace, and have been a featured speaker on ABC News, Fox 5, and Radio One. I'm also a former triathlete, love salsa dancing, and make the world’s best vegan chili! :-)
