About the Original Book:

Burnout, which is characterized by physical or emotional exhaustion and a sense of reduced accomplishment, affects up to 77 percent of full-time US professionals, according to a recent Deloitte survey. It erodes our physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing and costs up to $190 billion a year in healthcare costs. More than that, it affects the way we function and degrades the quality of our interactions with our families and friends. 

The cure, twin sisters Emily and Amelia Nagoski insist, is not bubble baths or any of the trendy products in the market today. It is in things like positive social connections, quality rest, meaning, self-compassion. Drawing from the latest research and their own experiences, they explain how we can go from being stressed and burned out to being more energized, involved, and resilient. Anyone who feels overwhelmed will find Burnout an invaluable resource.
