About This Audible Original
In January 2019, culture writer Anne Helen Petersen set the Internet on fire with her viral BuzzFeed essay diagnosing "millennial burnout"—a chronic state of stress and exhaustion that’s become a "base temperature" for young people today. Now, she continues this generation-defining conversation in a brand-new format, interviewing millennials around the country about their own deeply personal experiences with burnout and the culture that creates it. Listeners will hear about how this issue has affected Petersen’s own life as well as the lives of five very different subjects: Kevin, a musician and Marine veteran; Kate, a first-generation college graduate working to repay her formidable student debt; Haley and Evette, young writers at different career stages in the digital media industry; and John, a pastor and co-founder of a new Baptist church in North Carolina.
The conversations that comprise The Burnout Generation cover everything from debt to social media to the blurred boundaries between our professional and personal lives. In this illuminating and intimate audio project, listeners learn how and why this generation has been conditioned to "optimize" every aspect of our lives (Meal prep for the week! Find a side hustle! But practice self-care! And answer emails in bed!), and most importantly, how the consequences of this phenomenon play out in day-to-day life.

Historia
Burnout. Many women in America have experienced it. What’s expected of women and what it’s really like to be a woman in today’s world are two very different things - and women exhaust themselves trying to close the gap between them. Sisters Emily Nagoski, PhD, and Amelia Nagoski, DMA, are here to help end the cycle of feeling overwhelmed and exhausted. Instead of asking us to ignore the very real obstacles and societal pressures that stand between women and well-being, they explain with compassion and optimism what we’re up against - and teach us how to fight back.

Historia
Do you feel like your life is an endless to-do list? Do you find yourself mindlessly scrolling through Instagram because you’re too exhausted to pick up a book? Are you mired in debt, or feel like you work all the time, or feel pressure to take whatever gives you joy and turn it into a monetizable hustle? Welcome to burnout culture. While burnout may seem like the default setting for the modern era, in Can’t Even, BuzzFeed culture writer and former academic Anne Helen Petersen argues that burnout is a definitional condition for the millennial generation.

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

In this stunning audiobook, Malcolm Gladwell takes us on an intellectual journey through the world of "outliers" - the best and the brightest, the most famous, and the most successful. He asks the question: What makes high-achievers different? His answer is that we pay too much attention to what successful people are like, and too little attention to where they are from: That is, their culture, their family, their generation, and the idiosyncratic experiences of their upbringing.

Intelligence is usually seen as the ability to think and learn, but in a rapidly changing world, there's another set of cognitive skills that might matter more: the ability to rethink and unlearn. In our daily lives, too many of us favor the comfort of conviction over the discomfort of doubt. We listen to opinions that make us feel good, instead of ideas that make us think hard. We see disagreement as a threat to our egos, rather than an opportunity to learn.

In weeks after the September 11 attacks, 18-year-old Mansoor Adayfi was kidnapped by Afghan militia and sold to US forces for bounty money. After months of interrogations, he was sent to the US military prison at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, as one of its first prisoners. Like the nearly 800 other men imprisoned at Guantanamo, Adayfi didn’t know why he was imprisoned or for how long. He had never seen a skyscraper and couldn’t imagine what the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center looked like, much less how they were destroyed.

Why have history's greatest minds - from George Washington to Frederick the Great to Ralph Waldo Emerson along with today's top performers, from Super Bowl-winning football coaches to CEOs and celebrities - embraced the wisdom of the ancient Stoics? Because they realize that the most valuable wisdom is timeless and that philosophy is for living a better life, not a classroom exercise. The Daily Stoic offers a daily devotional of Stoic insights and exercises, featuring all-new translations.

Historia
In weeks after the September 11 attacks, 18-year-old Mansoor Adayfi was kidnapped by Afghan militia and sold to US forces for bounty money. After months of interrogations, he was sent to the US military prison at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, as one of its first prisoners. Like the nearly 800 other men imprisoned at Guantanamo, Adayfi didn’t know why he was imprisoned or for how long. He had never seen a skyscraper and couldn’t imagine what the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center looked like, much less how they were destroyed.

An unmatched guide to the religious dimensions of American politics, Jeff Sharlet journeys into corners of our national psyche where others fear to tread. The Undertow is both inquiry and meditation, an attempt to understand how, over the last decade, reaction has morphed into delusion, social division into distrust, distrust into paranoia, and hatred into fantasies—sometimes realities—of violence.

On the face of it, a simple book of 26 poem fables sharing one man’s wisdom. But The Prophet is so much more than that. It has inspired people from John F Kennedy to The Beatles and became the '60s Bible of counterculture – all because of the timeless truths it shared. Each poem takes a different theme – pleasure, beauty, freedom, joy and sorrow – as the fictional Al Mustapha shares his thoughts and experiences as he prepares to travel back to his island home.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement.

The history of the tablets translated in the following book is strange and beyond the belief of modern scientists. Their antiquity is stupendous, dating back some 36,000 years. The writer is Thoth, an Atlantean Priest-King, who founded a colony in ancient Egypt after the sinking of the mother country. He was the builder of the Great Pyramid of Giza, erroneously attributed to Cheops. In it he incorporated his knowledge of the ancient wisdom and also securely secreted records and instruments of ancient Atlantis.

And then, there are subjects from alien invasions to the Moon landing was simulated - theories that are truly out of this world, which according to some, is flat. Many of these crazy concepts have jumped off the pages or screens to become so pervasive in our culture that thousands - even millions - subscribe to them as reality.

Nat Arno, who took over leadership of the Minutemen in 1934 and made it his personal business to put an end to what he saw as the Bund’s “anti-American” activities. For six years, Arno and his crew of vigilantes battled Newark’s Nazis at every turn. The Minuteman is a story of the ethics of violence in the face of fascism; a forgotten legacy that is as relevant now as it was nearly a hundred years ago.

The whiner generation
As useful as I had hoped this would be I was disappointed. The premise of the book is that millennials are experiencing burnout at an unprecedented rate, that the older generation does not understand, and that they face unique pressures. While I was open to their plight what I heard was in fact your basic whine. One interviewee went on the talk about how being a minority she was told that she had to be better than her peers in order to stand out (is this news?). She ultimately found herself successfully at the helm of a powerful women's magazine. Here comes the but... but she is burned out by the pressures. The market place is highly competitive. Your advanced college degree is no guarantee of finding rewarding work. Student debt is exorbitant. etc etc. Of course they are pleading to a generation that remembers rampant black lung suffered by tens of thousands of coalminers, a generation that systematically and effectively excluded blacks, Asians, women and other minorities from the workplace and hid prestigious positions behind virtual steel vaults. A generation not unlike the numerous preceding generations, unsympathetic to gender confusion issues. A generation without wheelchair ramps, no smoking zones and plentiful handicap access. Talk about burnout! I was unmoved.

Burnout hits all generations.
although I'm not a millennial, this book was still very relevant. The more we learn and talk about this real issue, then perhaps the more influence we can have on a culture change.

very important information
When I listened to the interviews and commentary it rang true for all three of my daughters. They are all in very different occupations, all at the top of their game, and all working far too hard. Their schedules allow for almost no time for themselves. The point about the necessity for therapy is a great help. Thank you.

Not Just For Millennials
I really enjoyed this short listen. I am a Gen Xer and truly believe life is harder than it has ever been. I realize people have worked hard all their life, but it was hard-work with great accomplishments and now it is hard-work. That being said I gave this Audible Original a chance. So glad I took that chance.
I am glad for several reasons. (1) learned new lingo and ways this up and coming generation is finding work. (2) I discovered universities may not be keeping up with the times and giving millennials the tools to survive in this new world. (3) I have a greater understanding of burnout and why it exists.
I have been in the industry for some time and have lately discovered myself being a bit spacey and a lot more tired. I have passed this off on being a parent or what not. Talking with friends I find they are in the same boat as I am and it all boils down to burnout. The truth is we are all being asked to do more with less in our everyday lives.
Pretty interesting listen.

A baby boomers take on the book!
What an interesting book! And the interesting thing is that as a 61 year old I can not only understand the struggles the Millennials go through, but can relate to them. We just never identified and thought about the causes of burnout. Having said that, it is now easier for me to identify and understand the pressures, loneliness, and level of intensity the Millenials around me seem to be experiencing. This book has made me more aware of not only their struggles but their willingness to become part of the solution.

really related in a lot of ways
I recommend this book, it really makes you feel like all those times you come home from work to just stare at the laundry & think... when will it end... maybe it isn't a carousel of continuous repetition... maybe there are small changes you can make like admitting you may be burnt out that can help improve your quality of life. Just my two cents. I don't completely agree with everything, but it gave me a sense of possibility & a knowing that no matter how circular your life becomes, you are in control of more than just the circumference!

Very easy to relate to.
I've experienced a lot of the emotions and feelings of burnout that were talked about in this book. It makes me feel so much better that I'm not going crazy and I'm not the only one experiencing these things. It's a great book and I think people from all generations should read it so they know how life is through our eyes.

Podcast format.
More of a podcast than a book but still a good “read”. Three more words.
