piabo 's review for:
Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle
by Amelia Nagoski, Emily Nagoski
I was a bit sceptical because of some bad ratings, but I really loved this book.
Yes, it is also very political and does not talk through every possible way of getting rid of stress. But I think it does not make any sense to try to become less stressed in a world that is made to make women (and people in general) feel like they have to give up their wellbeing without understanding how the patriarchy (urgh) / the system affects them.
Similar to "Anti-Diet", the political view was very relevant and helped me incredibly well to accept what is going on with me.
This book also takes, in my opinion, a way better approach to intersectionalism and explicitly mentions how there are unique challenges for LGBTQI+ and BIPOC people.
