"Am I Burned Out? Or Just Exhausted?"

Victoria here, Girlboss’ executive editor. 👋

I know, I know. You’re probably burned out from all this talk of burnout. But unfortunately, it’s still very much a thing. Last year, burnout hit a six-year high, and a lot of us are asking ourselves the same question: “Am I actually burned out? Or do I just need a vacation?”

To clear it up, we tapped a mental health expert to break down the real difference between exhaustion and burnout. Spoiler: there’s one key distinction most of us are missing—and it has nothing to do with your bedtime or a better self-care routine. 😴

Other stuff the Girlboss team is yapping about on Slack:

• Nike is in hot water for allegedly discriminating against… white employees?!

• A huge blow for journalism: The Washington Post laid off 300 journalists yesterday.

• Five minutes is all you need to stay informed.*
