In this episode, we explore the emotional toll of humanitarian work and what it truly takes to build resilience in the face of burnout, moral injury, compassion fatigue, survivor’s guilt, and other often unspoken mental health challenges. Whether you’ve spent years in the field or are just starting out, chances are you—or someone you’ve worked closely with—has felt the weight of this work. Joining us is Weanne Estrada-Magbanua, Mental Health Specialist at ADRA International, who brings extensive experience in supporting staff wellbeing and organizational wellness in crisis-affected settings. Together, we unpack the risks, the stigma, and the practical strategies that help humanitarian workers care for themselves and each other—so we can thrive, not just survive, in the work we do.
