Summary
Random House presents the audiobook edition of Burnout by Amelia Nagoski and Emily Nagoski, read by Emily Nagoski.
This groundbreaking book explains why women experience burnout differently than men - and provides a simple, science-based plan to help women minimize stress, manage emotions and live a more joyful life.
The gap between what it's really like to be a woman and what people expect women to be is a primary cause of burnout, because we exhaust ourselves trying to close the space between the two. How can you 'love your body' when everything around you tells you you're inadequate? How do you 'lean in' at work when you're already giving 110% and aren't recognized for it? How can you live happily and healthily in a world that is constantly telling you you're too fat, too needy, too noisy and too selfish? Sisters Emily Nagoski, Ph.D., the bestselling author of Come as You Are, and Amelia Nagoski, DMA, are here to help end the cycle of overwhelm and exhaustion, and confront the obstacles that stand between women and well-being. With insights from the latest science, prescriptive advice, and helpful worksheets and exercises, Burnout reveals:
* what you can do to complete the biological stress cycle - and return your body to a state of relaxation.
* how to manage the 'monitor' in your brain that regulates the emotion of frustration.
* how the Bikini Industrial Complex makes it difficult for women to love their bodies - and how to fight back.
* why rest, human connection, and befriending your inner critic are key to recovering from and preventing burnout.
Eye-opening, compassionate and optimistic, Burnout will completely transform the way we think about and manage stress, empowering women to thrive under pressure and enjoy meaningful yet balanced lives. All women will find something transformative in these pages - and be empowered to create positive and lasting change.

A must read for women everywhere.
The sisters teach us how to look after ourselves, how to be whole and how to notice and avoid burnout. I have just finished the book but will be going through it again. It's entertaining and thought provoking.

fantastic
I have listened and read a number of self help books but I think this one might be my favourite. Informative, funny, accessible... just wonderful. No negatives from me, give it a read or a listen. I will definitely be reading for a second time :)

A wonderful and important book
I wish I’d been able to read or listen to this book when I was younger - but it’s come along at a vital time for me and I’m so grateful it’s been written. I highly recommend it to everyone, especially women, but everyone!!

Amazing read
Really enjoyed this book- there are many gems of wisdom hidden within it.
Would definitely recommend for those who are experiencing burnout in their lives right now or those who work in professions with a high risk of burnout.

Empowering and necessary.
Using evidence and story to help unpick both what can limit us and what can put us back in touch with our full energy and worth, this was a great book.

The meaning
I will not go into EVERYTHING that is absolutely amazing with this book apart from the fact that the voice is so easy to listen to and very emotional and the story telling is so skillful and interesting. After I finished listening to this I just sat for a good 20 minutes processing. Best self help book out there, changed my life.

One of the best books I've read in 2019
It's not just for women. It's the book I wish I'd had years ago. Each chapter is so relevant and accessible I feel that this could so easily be adapted to be a course that I'd happily spend the rest of my life teaching/showing people. Congratulations to Emily and Amelia for writing one of the most sensible and inspiring 'self-help' books I've ever read and I've read so many! I've recommended it to my friends and two more copies are arriving today for me to give as gifts this Christmas to my favourite people.

every woman should read this.
I was given this by a friend and it really hit the nail on the head for me. I will listen to this again so that it really sinks in. I liked the way it was read.
