Outrage Exhaustion: How to Avoid Burnout in Today's Nonstop Breaking News Cycle
LISTEN TO THE FULL EPISODE:
In a world with 24/7 breaking news stories, burnout and outrage exhaustion are inevitable. With the algorithms, our shortened attention spans and the whistleblower provided evidence that social media sites prioritize and amplify emotionally volatile content, it’s no wonder it feels like a nonstop media barrage on our sense of safety and stability.
In today’s episode Nikki is joined by licensed clinical psychologist and previous guest, Dr. Adia Gooden, to talk about tips for taking care of yourself amidst information inundation, how to take meaningful action when the world feels like it's on fire and guidance for navigating performative activism/action when looking to make a difference.
What does the current outrage landscape feel like to you? How has your mental, emotional, psychological or relational health been impacted?
