Empathy Burnout Within Conservation

Seeding Change: The Conservation Podcast
Empathy Burnout Within Conservation
Show Notes

Experiencing empathy burnout, compassion fatigue and eco-anxiety are all too common within environmental conservation, but... it hardly ever gets talked about. We want to change that today. 

Burnout is something both Seeding Change hosts have experienced and this episode is not only an acknowledgement of the realities of this but is also a reminder of the importance of self care. 

Morgan and Meg share some of their own self-care routines and recognise the challenges of working within conservation as well as the emotional exhaustion that comes with scrolling through constant bad news on social media.
