Everyone is vulnerable to burnout and anyone can succumb to its effects. Empty suggestions, like "just relax" or work sponsored resilience workshops often lead to feeling judged or wasting precious time.

Each chapter focuses on a different concept and thoroughly explains the science behind it. Activities, therapy techniques, journaling prompts, and personal anecdotes are shared to help readers implement the concept in their recovery journey. With this book, readers will:
- Discover solutions that help readers work smarter not harder
