Today we are diving into the all-too-familiar topics of stress and burnout with our special guest, Amelia Nagoski. Amelia is an author, speaker and conductor who holds a Doctorate in Music from The University of Connecticut. She wrote the New York Times bestseller, Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle, with her identical twin sister, Emily. The book contains science and stories for people, especially women, who have felt exhausted and overwhelmed by everything they have to do, yet they still feel like they’re not doing enough. 

This conversation with Amelia is a reminder to take yourself seriously and to start listening to that voice inside of you. You won’t be able to show up fully in this world until you begin taking this thing called burnout seriously, and by figuring out what your needs truly are! 

We’d love it if you could share this episode and message with anyone you feel could benefit from it, because burnout is such a relevant topic today for so many people. Don’t forget to tag us, @burnoutbookgroup and @herselfpodcast, and let us know what resonated the most with you!
