This was so so good!! I'd read another of Emily's books and that made me interested in this one, especially given the topic. I'd highly recommend reading this, especially if you deal with burnout or stress, and especially if you're a woman (or like, woman-adjacent lmao).
My one critique is that there are definitely some feminist vibes that feel a little....idk how to describe it. Outdated? Cringey? But that's not too intense and I feel like overall I really agree with their politics generally so I was willing to forgive it. I really like how the book addresses systemic causes and things that a lot of self-help books don't address.
I want a physical copy of this book to reference! The tl;drs at the end of each chapter are super helpful. This book will genuinely change how I live my life.
