A portfolio and online journal by Amy C, Museum Education Professional. Sharing original poetry, articles, artwork, and reflections on museum education, social justice, and personal values including feminism, LGBT+ rights, anti-racism, and equality. With over three years in learning and engagement roles, I contribute to Birmingham Museums Trust by fostering meaningful, inclusive experiences that celebrate diverse histories. My expertise lies in audience development, team management, and delivering creative programs that inspire a love of learning, particularly in the domains of feminism and the ancient world. At Birmingham Museums Trust, I led the development of impactful events such as the annual 'International Women and Girls in Science Day,' emphasizing collaboration and community engagement. My mission is to create accessible opportunities for learning while empowering teams and contributing to organizational growth.

Honestly, is barely eating, sleeping a ton,

getting burnout/overwhelmed easily,

Not socialising,

Not exercising,

Coping?

The question hangs in the air.

The reality is troubling.

The answer is obvious.

You ignore it, of course.

You want to be better.

You are still not sure if you even deserve better.

Or, what better is.

You are numb.

Desperately,

Searching for anything that makes you feel,

Even for a split second.

And in the past,

You would quit,

But there’s no backing out in this case.

You’ve been watching yourself,

Living?

your life for years now.

Better wake up,

You think,

Before the world has moved on,

And forgotten you and all your sacrifice.
