THIS BOOK: Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle by Emily Nagoski, Ph.D. The patriarchy and how it plays into burnout We discuss the key takeaways from the book, including the importance of completing the stress cycle, what wellness really is, human giver syndrome, how the patriarchy affects burnout, body image, and much more. Today we’re diving into a conversation about the book ‘Burnout’ by Amelia Nagoski, D.M.A.
The authors provide practical tips on how to cope with stress, how to set limits for yourself, and how in creating boundaries and limits with others we can improve our relationships with those that stress us out.Join me and my book club co-host, Charelle Griffith, for the 6th edition of Making Good Book Club! There are so many layers to our stress-and how we deal with it-that we don’t necessarily think about or know what to do with.
I found this book to be very helpful and insightful. In this section, the authors provide a short list of key facts and questions to help summarize the chapter-as someone who doesn’t read as much nonfiction as she should, I found this very helpful. At the end of each chapter, there is a “tl dr” list-that wonderful abbreviation for “too long, didn’t read”.
Twin sisters Emily and Amelia Nagoski combine real life stories from their own friends and statistics to provide a path to completing the stress cycle that affects so many women. It’s an incredibly accessible look at how women, and men but the book focuses on women, get caught up in a cycle of trying to meet everyone’s needs, be everything to everyone, and then got lost to the burnout that follows. The further I got into this book, the more it felt like I was right there with the authors and their best friends. If you are the type of person who enjoys sitting around with your best friends, having a coffee or cup of tea, and getting into a deep and emotional conversation, this book will be a perfect fit for you.
