Practical and helpful

Easy to read, sympathetic, encouraging and motivating. Most of us spend so much time at work, and whether you are in in a toxic workplace or not, this book provides good information with insights and knowledge from one who has lived through it all. Exactly enough that you need to hear and simple enough that you can put to use.

Deeply Personal, Powerful Help.

This book was birthed from very painful life experiences, and even unspeakable tragedy. It's rare for someone to rise out of the ashes and live life after such things. Even rarer, to take your pain and let it be transformed into healing for others. Even rarer still, to make that healing available to people all over the world.

That's exactly what this author has done. As she states in her introduction to the reader:

"It's time to begin the journey of uncrushing your soul. It's time to live again."

I have experienced burnout in many areas of life. And I think, after reading this book - and glimpsing at what healthy workplaces look like vs. unhealthy ones - I can appreciate the healthy aspects of places I've worked, and wake up to the unhealthy aspects.

But this book doesn't simply take a victim stance. The goal here is to empower the reader to do their best work while still maintaining the integrity of their health. Developing emotional intelligence, good communication and conflict resolution skills, setting boundaries, and being the change ... these are all tools talked about, and beautifully so.

And there are even tools given to heal from past trauma around workplace burnout. A vital thing often overlooked.

If you're looking to give your best, in a healthy, sustainable way, this is a great listen.

Really fantastic book!

From recognizing toxic behaviors to cultivating assertiveness, it's a comprehensive toolkit for personal and professional growth. What I love most is its empowering message—you don't have to wait for change; you can initiate it now.
What really sets this book apart is Alison's authentic and empathetic style. It's not cluttered with meaningless buzzwords but rather resembles a sincere chat with a friend who empathizes with your challenges. The wisdom shared, particularly the author's personal highlights, really resonated with me. The focus on conquering workplace trauma and refusing to let it dictate your path forward is both empowering and uplifting. Highly recommended for anyone seeking fulfillment and balance in their career and life. Highly recommend!

Fantastic story-telling by Sally Fourth keeps the listeners engaged throughout. Loved it, beginning to end!

Burnout No More!

Many of us can truly relate to this book as we are most often overwhelmed with our jobs. It would be nice if we all had that perfect job with perfect boss and employees. But let's be realistic, work will always have some form of stress eventually leading to a burnout.

This book provides practical methods to reduce or even eliminate workplace burnout. I also really liked how the author provided detailed information about topics related to burnout. But what I love most is the comprehensive guide with powerful techniques to balance work and personal life. I also love the methods on how to deal with toxic individuals and the workplace as a whole.

The book is written well and profoundly impacts me since it is similar to my first job experiences. Thinking about the difficulties you had to overcome was really upsetting.
