The Burnout Workbook by Jennifer Moss
Burnout is complicated. It’s not caused by one person, one event, or one bad boss; it’s the combination of stress across multiple dimensions. And while much of the root is structural, there are still places where you can regain agency and improve.
What to expect from the Burnout Workbook by Jennifer Moss
Maybe you're feeling overwhelmed and don’t see a way out. Maybe you're running on empty but still pushing through. Maybe you’re just trying to understand why work – something that once energized you – now feels like a burden. Whatever the answer, know that you're not alone.
This workbook isn’t here to diagnose burnout – it’s here to create opportunities for reflection and provide a set of tools to help prevent and manage burnout. If at any time you are feeling overwhelmed, please take a moment to consider whether you need additional mental health support. You can find local and national resources on the last page of the guide.
Here are the four main objectives of this 12-week program and beyond:
Understand what causes burnout and what to do about it.
Know how and when those causes show up in your own life at work.
Identify small, doable actions that are within your control to moderate chronic stress.
If needed, have the tools and resources ready to support a recovery from burnout.
