This roundtable is an open, compassionate space for honest discussion about how our experiences, both personal and professional, shape the way we work, communicate, and care for safety. We’ll explore how stress, trust, and organizational culture influence our ability to speak up and support one another. Participants are welcome to come to listen, share their stories, or simply be present.
