AS HEARD ON BBC RADIO 4 WOMAN'S HOUR
Chosen by the Financial Times and Stylist as a Book To Read in 2024
'Schaffner is insightful, charming and visionary' Susan Elderkin, author of The Novel Cure
Burnout is said to be the defining feeling of the post-pandemic world - but why are we all so exhausted? Some of us struggle with perfectionism, while others are simply overwhelmed by the demands of modern life.
From confronting our inner critics to how our desire to be productive stops us from being free, Anna Katharina Schaffner, cultural historian and burnout coach, brings together science, medicine, literature and philosophy to explore the causes and history of exhaustion and burnout, revealing new ways to combat stress and negativity.
Inventive and freewheeling, full of comfort, solace and practical advice, Exhausted is an inspiring guide to getting control of your own exhaustion - and rediscovering happiness along the way.
Anna Katharina Schaffner is cultural historian and burnout coach, and is the author of The Art of Self-Improvement: Ten Timeless Truths, and a novel, The Truth About Julia. She has written for the TLS, Guardian and Psychology Today. Her research has featured on BBC Radio 4 and in Vogue, Atlantic, National Geographic and on Buzzfeed.
