The Joy of Burnout: How the End of the World Can Be a New Beginning by Dina Glouberman takes a unique and unconventional approach to burnout. Rather than viewing it as a negative or destructive experience, the author presents burnout as an opportunity for personal growth, transformation, and the creation of a more fulfilling life.
Glouberman challenges the traditional narrative surrounding burnout, which often portrays it as a sign of failure or weakness. Instead, she encourages readers to embrace burnout as a catalyst for positive change. She argues that burnout can serve as a wake-up call, signalling that something in our lives is out of alignment and in need of attention.
