How to break burnout cycles in activist communities

Our activist group has been talking about stepping back from burnout culture but the people who say they want to slow down are the same ones pushing for more actions, more events, more urgency. We're stuck in this cycle where everyone agrees we need boundaries but no one wants to be the one to actually enforce them.

More people experience this than they realize.
