Summary

People everywhere are burning out. 

From CEOs to nurses, to doctors, teachers, entrepreneurs, journalists, social workers, academics, creatives...even yoga teachers are at it.

Technology was supposed to make life easier, free us up, take things off our plates, and instead, we are feeling more exhausted, more under pressure and more stressed out than ever before. People all over the world are lying awake at night wired from exhaustion and uncertainty, fearful of the looming to-do list that awaits them in the morning and wondering how the hell they are going to keep this up before they lose the plot altogether. 

Life doesn't have to be this way. 

This book is a no-nonsense, practical guide to thriving in a fast-paced modern world, for the burnt out, bone tired and brain frazzled. It's a toolkit that will help you learn what ingredients you need in order to thrive and how to weave those ingredients into your day-to-day, no matter how busy life gets.

Whether you are a classic overachiever, over giver or over thinker, be prepared to take back your boundaries, replenish your energy and design a life you love.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Great performance and good insight

I enjoyed Selina's narrating style and the book offered some good insight on self-reflection. While I do appreciate the comprehensive approach on mental and physical well-being, I felt the book could have dug deeper into the roots of burnout. In its format the book seems more focused on creating a support structure to prevent burnout (very useful) rather than helping the reader to understand what caused their burnout in the first place and how to avoid the same pitfalls once recovered. Not easy to cover all in a single text, so still a worthwhile read alongside other research.

Straight to the point, actionable advice delivered with kindness

Lots of useful, actionable advice. When you’re burnt out and exhausted, the last thing you want to do is spend lots of chapters going through the theory before you even get into anything practical, so this was perfect. And I love the way Selina delivers it, in a calm, kind and supportive way, that feels like listening to a friend.
