Burnout: A Love Story is a sharp, funny nonfiction exploration of how modern culture teaches people to confuse exhaustion with ambition, usefulness with worth, and constant availability with commitment. The book frames burnout as a toxic romance that begins attractively-with praise, productivity, and the thrill of being needed-before revealing its red flags: perfectionism, overcommitment, fake urgency, invisible emotional labor, and the belief that rest must be earned. Through satire, it exposes the absurdity of workplaces and lifestyles that reward self-neglect while offering meditation apps, scented candles, and wellness webinars instead of meaningful support.
