HeyOrca virtual summit:
Mental health for social media managers
October 2, 2025 | 1-5 pm EST | $10-25 CAD
You're the strategist, creator, designer, and community builder. But who's looking after you? Most social media managers face burnout from 24/7 demands, unrealistic expectations, and endless content creation.
This virtual summit puts you first – offering honest conversations on burnout, boundaries, and balance, plus tools to protect your creativity, energy, and well-being. Early bird tickets available until September 14!
(100% of ticket sales will be donated to the Canadian Mental Health Association and matched by HeyOrca up to $1000.)
