Show Notes

Earlier this year I read a book that I knew could be life-changing for the women of this community. It contained research backed information on how to handle burnout that surprised me, and may surprise you, too. In this interview with co-author Amelia Nagoski, we dive into what burnout really is, what it's stemming from, and how to actually unlock the accompanying stress cycle that we sometimes can't seem to escape.

Amelia and her twin sister Emily researched and wrote this book, and even they learned some things they weren't expecting. Amelia explains the primary characteristic of burnout for women, and where true healing can come from. She also breaks down the physiological response that our bodies have to stress, and why burnout even occurs. Lastly, we touch on practical ways to treat burn out (spoiler alert it is NOT through self-care!) and how you can find your own "bubble."
