How to Overcome Burnout: Insights from Emily & Amelia Nagoski on Stress, Resilience & Finding Balance

Feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, and burned out as the year comes to a close? You’re not alone. In this bonus episode of Hello Monday, originally recorded back in 2020, Jessi Hempel sits down with Emily and Amelia Nagoski, co-authors of Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle. They explore the root causes of burnout, the importance of emotional resilience, and how societal expectations contribute to the stress cycle. The Nagoskis discuss how burnout manifests in different groups, particularly women, and how to strike a balance between being a "human giver" and a "human being" to break free from constant exhaustion. They identify connection and community as the strongest tools against burnout. They also touch on the need for self-compassion, and how to find true purpose beyond societal pressures. Whether you're struggling with work burnout or seeking healthier emotional strategies, this episode offers valuable insights into managing stress, healing from emotional wounds, and creating a life of balance and fulfillment.
