I needed this book so badly. I ended up quitting my job before I started reading this book but it perfectly depicted the many reasons that I ended up making a leap and leaving a bad fit before I had anything else lined up. And this is the life of women - being told that we have to be thin, polished, nurturing humans who make less than men just because we are "other." And we're also told that we're nuts and that that isn't really happening. If I had read this book four months ago, I think it would have opened my eyes that much sooner and I'd have lost out on those months of stress (oh darn...)This very readable and relatable book looks at the various things in our loves that can and do cause burnout and offers some suggestions on how to close the cycle.
Mu favorite takeaway was: Wellness is not a state of being but a state of action.
Four stars
This book came out March 26
