Burnout is a theme among youth climate activists, and if we’re really honest, it’s a theme among anybody working in educational, environmental, health, or other spaces where “care” is the job.This episode is part 2 in a series about climate emotions in education and young people. I interview Katie Hodgetts about her experience with burnout, from being a prominent activist in the early years of the youth climate movement, through her turn toward mental health and redefining activism to be more about intentional “activation,” and less fiery “action.” Katie founded The Resilience Project, a youth-led organization to support young people trying to change the world, and wrote a fantastic book that just came out in Spring 2026, Act, Rest, Reset, Repeat. We talk about vulnerability, eating disorders and climate anxiety, burnout and rest, and the necessity of inner work for effective climate advocacy.
