Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle by Amelia Nagoski, Emily Nagoski

4.0

This was helpful in exploring ways to deal with stress and stressors (and even gave me the language to differentiate between them!). I appreciate that this book is specifically for people who were socialized as women, because there is so much extra bullshit that we have to deal with that leads to our special kind of empathy burnout. This book didn't change my life--there were sections that didn't click for me personally, and that's fine. But it does provide helpful tools for dealing with stress and stressors, for exploring how to find your big picture as a way to reconnect with what drives you, and I really liked the case studies as "real life" examples of how these can play out.
