Knowledge is power ladies, so we thought we would share an article find with you today.
Women burning out may or may not be a new concept for you, but it’s an IMPORTANT concept. Here’s a great ‘starter’ article from Fast Company that dropped into my inbox. 5 Ways to Lean In Without Burning Out by Vanessa Loder & Lisa Abramson. (click here to read)
Have a read and make some changes. What have you got to lose exhausted lady?

If you get all choked up watching a news piece on a crisis or a touching story of helping–take note, this could be an interest you could build on.
You could take that interest one step further. Why not email (contact) the organisation and ask how you could get involved. There may be several options that suit you and your sensitivities and gifts.
Your new interest could just be a new beginning.

Ladies, how ARE you aging? This question may surprise you, but The Burnout Queens know that what we are about to suggest is rarely, if ever, what a woman does!
If we ask do you make lists? then all of you will say, “of course, what woman can hold all the details she needs to remember in her head…best to write them down”
But that’s not the kind of list we are meaning. We know stuff and things are readily written, but what about this powerful list?
Have you a list of strengths about yourself that have gotten better with age? Did we just hear a groan, sigh, silence?! How many of us are encouraged to write this list? Let’s pretend you do have such a list handy (and you will after reading this) and ask you again.
HAVE YOU A LIST OF STRENGTHS ABOUT YOURSELF THAT HAVE GOTTEN BETTER WITH AGE? If the answer is:
Yes, then embrace them fully and enjoy the power and wisdom of knowing and accepting.
No, then start your list (this kind of list not the stuff) and act on them from today onward. Still wise and powerful.
With respect — The Burnout Queens xx
