“An empowering guidebook to combatting burnout . . . Emily Ballesteros’s advice is useful and practical, especially for young workers eager to reclaim their time and energy.”—Charles Duhigg, New York Times bestselling author of The Power of Habit and Smarter Faster Better

Is dread the first thing you feel when you wake up in the morning? Are you working in the evenings and on weekends to "catch up"? Have you already beat burnout once, only to find it creeping back? If you answered yes to any of these, you’re in need of a cure for burnout.

In The Cure for Burnout, burnout management coach and TikTok influencer Emily Ballesteros combines scientific and cultural research, her expertise in organizational psychology, and the tried-and-true strategies she’s successfully implemented with clients around the globe to demystify burnout for our post-pandemic world—and set you on a path toward a life of personal and professional balance. Ballesteros outlines five areas in which you can build healthy habits to combat burnout—mindset, personal care, time management, boundaries, and stress management. She offers clear, easy-to-implement tools to help you find greater balance, energy, and fulfillment, showing you how to:

• break burnout habits that keep you in a pattern of chronic overwhelm
• create sustainable work/life balance through predictable personal care
• get more done in less time while creating forward momentum toward a meaningful life
• identify and set your personal and professional limits, guilt-free
• master your stress and detach from your stressors

The Cure for Burnout provides a holistic method for burnout management to address the epidemic of our always-on, chronically overextended culture, empowering us to reclaim control of our own lives once and for all.

Funny, wise, and full of apply-today knowledge, I loved this total reset of a book.”—Katherine Morgan Schafler, author of The Perfectionist’s Guide to Losing Control

Needed this

I enjoyed the practicality and storytelling . I also liked the perspective from a POC. I already recommended to friends.

Desperately Needed

The advice and guidance in this book are desperately needed during this time of mass burnout. Staring down the long passage ahead to retirement, many of us are at our wits end, unsure if we can make it, and our quality of life is almost non-existent. I bought this audio book and will be buying the actual book so I can make many highlights for quick reference.

Excellent read for busy professionals

This book is an excellent read. It does not just identify burn out and give you the run of the mill solutions. It is a real guide to reclaiming your life and time.

Exceptional and compassionate resource

Practical and empathetic! Great narration by the author herself! Highly recommend to everyone. Lots of good communication strategies.

So many excellent ideas to implement easily! Highly Recommend!

I really enjoyed the straightforward explanations and examples for each concept. I feel that I learned many actionable steps that I could use right away. Plus Emily sounds like the most reassuring coach with her empathetic and encouraging delivery. I will reuse this book often as a resource.

Easy to follow and relatable

The author was really gentle with her story telling. It was aggressive. It was more advice from a long term friend.

great for middle class white women

This book on burnout is really for a specific demographic and at times is straight up ableist and classist. Really disappointing that the advice was to stop skipping your pilates classes without a discussion for those of us stuck work 2 jobs for survival, with disabilities or neurodivergence, etc. The advice given is super basic and nothing you couldn’t google.
