Internal Revolution: Ending Burnout Cycles & Culture
An online course for activists and changemakers to move out of burnout and create cultures of thriving.
It's not a weakness, inadequacy or something we end by 'being stronger' or 'pushing through'.
It’s a result of ways of working that do not support us, and a symptom of a dysfunctional society.
It’s a system problem manifesting in individuals and so there is work to do at two levels.
First, within us - our bodies, hearts and minds.
Secondly, as a community, in how we come together, the working styles we embody and our relationship to conflict, scarcity and belonging.
We need to stop thinking of resilience as endurance, and instead treat it as a product of thriving.
Internal Revolution goes to the root of burnout, and empowers you to make the individual and collective changes needed to not just struggle by, but thrive.
Over five weeks, Internal Revolution will take you on a journey inside out, starting with:
Internal Revolution is designed by and for changemakers, to give you the skills, tools and community you need to take action, end burnout, and create communities of thriving.
You know the cycle.
You see systems of oppression, economic injustice, the planet in strife and your heart is aflame. You know we can do more, must do more.
You volunteer, join a campaign, take to the streets, or even show up to work because it's your full time job, but…it’s just too much.
Before long, you’re overwhelmed, exhausted, guilty, irritable, depressed.
Your effectiveness is compromised and you start to wonder whether you should quit the work you deeply care about.
Burnout is real, but there is a way to end it.
Perhaps you’ve always been a helper.
Maybe you were the university student who spoke up when lectures were laden with prejudice, or the adult, unable to sleep after watching one too many news stories that day.
You feel things.
You see things.
And you know change is possible.
You also know that stress & burnout mean you aren't having the impact you desire, and thriving probably feels a long way off.
Internal Revolution is for changemakers, activists, organisers, volunteers, for-purpose entrepreneurs & non-profit workers and all those looking to end burnout cycles & culture as they strive to be the change they want to see.
Internal Revolution begins on Wednesday, 9 March 2022 and takes place over five weeks.
Each week you'll receive access to video content, reflection prompts, worksheets & meditations. This is the primary course content, and can be completed at your own pace.

Hi, I’m Laura.
I’m an activist, writer and founder of an online school for changemakers & activists.
I believe that each of us has a role to play in creating a more beautiful world, and that if we're serious about dismantling systems of oppression, we need to examine how and where these systems reside within us, and as us.
The work of this school & these courses if to help you heal burnout culture, deepen your impact, and create the conditions for social healing & collective thriving.
In my free time, you can find me engaged in non-violent climate activism, travelling, salsa dancing, gluten free baking or listening to Krista Tippett’s On Being podcast.
