This is Headspace Health’s next acquisition this year, and we come across out why they selected to ‘buy alternatively of build’ when it arrived time to refine and enrich the inclusiveness of their meditation, self-care, and mental health care offerings.

For example? Naomi talks about “representation burnout” which is its personal manufacturer of burnout that is typically-seasoned-but-not-generally-named by folks who endure the pressures of getting the “lone representative” of a minority population in a vastly homogenous workforce.
