Hi, I’m Gem (they/them), and I’m the founder of SelfCare Backpack, a company focused on self care for people in tech.

Why people in tech?

I worked in tech for a decade before becoming self employed in Feb 2023, so I have experience in managing your well-being and self care while working in fast paced, highly cognitive work environments, where you’re at your screen for most of the day.

What do you offer?

I’m glad you asked. I do workshops, talks, and individual self care coaching. I’ve done workshops on self care and journaling, shame and sitting with feelings. I’ve done talks on self care, anxiety, and how to support employees.
