🎉 Somehow, someway, we made it to Episode 101 of Beyond Resistance. We accidentally skipped celebrating Episode 100, which honestly feels very on-brand for two people juggling politics, community building, perimenopause, podcasts, and occasionally remembering what day it is.
This week, Jennifer and Sarah dive into a question a lot of organizers, activists, and frankly, humans are asking right now: Are we running out of outrage?
From the concept of outrage fatigue to the shifting Overton Window, they explore what happens when every headline demands your attention, your anger, and your emotional energy. After years of political chaos, protests, organizing, and constant crisis mode, what keeps people engaged when being outraged 24/7 simply isn't sustainable anymore?
Along the way, they discuss:
There are also important updates about the future of the podcast, reflections on reaching 100+ episodes, and an unexpectedly passionate rant involving a CPAP machine, braces, menopause, and the absolute limits of human patience.
The big takeaway? You don't have to be enraged every minute of every day to make a difference. Sustainable change happens when people stay connected, support one another, and keep showing up, even when they're tired.
Because sometimes resistance looks less like a protest sign and more like a campfire, a conversation, and a community that refuses to quit. 🔥🎙️💙
