Overview

THE BURNOUT GAP: Why ""Self-Care"" Isn't Enough for Exhausted Women Are you tired of being told to meditate your way through misery? Have you bought the journals, downloaded the apps, and perfected the art of the performatively peaceful Instagram post-only to feel more exhausted, empty, and secretly furious than ever? Your burnout is not your fault. It is not a personal failure of resilience or a sign that you didn't ""lean in"" hard enough. It is a design flaw. In this groundbreaking and urgently needed manifesto, Dr. Cherish James dismantles the multi-trillion dollar ""wellness"" industry to reveal the brutal truth: we have been sold individual solutions for a collective catastrophe. The Burnout Gap is a forensic investigation into how modern society became a machine engineered to extract women's physical, emotional, and cognitive labor-and a revolutionary blueprint for its repair. Moving beyond diagnosis, Dr. James provides a concrete plan for Collective Care: the radical work of redesigning our workplaces, renegotiating our homes, and demanding the policy infrastructure that makes thriving possible. This is not a book about better bubble baths. This is a book about building a better world. For every woman who has ever been handed a stress ball when what she needed was a revolution, this is your manual. The Burnout Gap will show you how to: Transform your exhaustion from a private shame into political data. Replace soul-crushing ""self-care"" with sustainable, mutual support systems. Redesign your job and your home using evidence-based models for equity. Channel your justified rage into actionable advocacy for paid leave, childcare, and a new social contract. Join a movement of women who are done trying to save themselves-and are ready to save each other. Stop trying to fix yourself. It's time to fix the system.
