Podcasts about burnout generation

Readers, if you are feeling burned out right now, you are not alone. In our team meeting last week, we talked about the fact that things are hard right now. That's why this feels like a great time to revisit a favorite past episode from another time not so long ago when we were also feeling burned out. Today we're sharing Anne's May 2021 conversation with journalist Anne Helen Petersen, which originally aired back then as Episode 284. Anne Helen writes the weekly email newsletter Culture Study and she knows a lot about burnout because she literally wrote a book about it: Can't Even: How Millennials Became the Burnout Generation. In today's episode, Anne Helen shares her personal experience with reading during a grueling season, advice and hope for readers who feel stuck in burnout, and a handful of backlist favorites from her own bookshelves. No matter how your reading life has evolved over the last few years, or even if it hasn't, we think you'll find comfort and insight in today's episode.

In recent years, in the realms of self-improvement literature, Instagram influencers, and wellness gurus, an idea has taken hold: that in a non-stop world, the act of slowing down offers a path to better living. In this episode of Critics at Large, the staff writers Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz trace the rise of “slowness culture”—from Carl Honoré's 2004 manifesto to pandemic-era trends of mass resignations and so-called quiet quitting. The hosts discuss the work of Jenny Odell, whose books “How to Do Nothing” and “Saving Time” frame reclaiming one's time as a life-style choice with radical roots and revolutionary political potential. But how much does an individual's commitment to leisure pay off on the level of the collective? Is too much being laid at the feet of slowness? “For me, it's about reclaiming an aspect of humanness, just the experience of not having to make the most with everything we have all the time,” Schwartz says. “There can be a degree of self-defeating critique where you say, ‘Oh, well, this is only accessible to the privileged few.' And I think the better framing is, how can more people access that kind of sitting with humanness?”Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“How Millennials Became the Burnout Generation,” by Anne Helen Petersen (BuzzFeed)“How to Do Nothing: Resisting the Attention Economy,” by Jenny Odell“Improving Ourselves to Death,” by Alexandra Schwartz (The New Yorker)“In Praise of Slowness: Challenging the Cult of Speed,” by Carl Honoré“The Sabbath,” by Abraham Joshua Heschel“Saving Time: Discovering a Life Beyond Productivity Culture,” by Jenny Odell“Slow Down: The Degrowth Manifesto,” by Kohei SaitoNew episodes drop every Thursday.

We're thrilled to be joined by Anne Helen Petersen for this episode about the popularity of athleisure! If you don't already know, Anne Helen Petersen (she/her) is the incredible writer, journalist and recovering academic behind the beloved newsletter Culture Study. She is the host of a brand new podcast of the same name and the author of four books, most recently Out of the Office: The Big Problem and Bigger Promise of Working From Home (co-written with Charlie Warzel) and Can't Even: How Millennials Became the Burnout Generation. Together we begin with a history lesson from Hannah about WWII's effect on the fashion industry, particular women's clothing and the rise of spandex. Hannah offers some insight from cultural critic Jia Tolentino and her essay, "Athleisure, barre and kale: the tyranny of the ideal woman." We then move on to some helpful framing from theorist Michelle Foucault, sociologists Daniel Nehring and Anja Röcke, and feminist scholars Julie Brice and Holly Thorpe. We talk neoliberalism, fatphobia, and, of course, our culture's obsession with optimization. We end with an honest discussion about the role of pop culture analysis in helping us navigate the murky waters of ideology. We loved having Anne on the show and if you like this episode, we recommend heading to patreon.com/ohwitchplease for more! Anne joins us for two perks you DO NOT want to miss. And of course, you can find more of Anne's specific, timely and thoughtful writing all over the internet @annehelenpetersen!You can learn more about the show at ohwitchplease.ca and on our instagram at instagram.com/ohwitchplease!

We'll be back in two weeks for another episode, but until then, we mean it — go check out all the other content we have on our Patreon at Patreon.com/ohwitchplease! ***Material Girls is a show that aims to make sense of the zeitgeist through materialist critique* and critical theory! Each episode looks at a unique object of study (something popular now or from back in the day) and over the course of three distinct segments, Hannah and Marcelle apply their academic expertise to the topic at hand.*Materialist Critique is, at its simplest possible level, a form of cultural critique – that is, scholarly engagement with a cultural text of some kind – that is interested in modes of production, moments of reception, and the historical and ideological contexts for both. Materialist critique is really interested in the question of why a particular cultural work or practice emerged at a particular moment.

But then came #RushTok —  a flurry of TikToks documenting the sorority recruitment process among university campuses, especially in the South.

It chronicled the rush process at the University of Alabama and has garnered an astonishing 3 billion TikTok views (and counting).   This week we speak to writer, journalist, and former sorority sister Anne Helen Petersen, who  has been documenting the phenomenon.

For people in caring professions, trauma can be something we experience on a regular basis. an event doesn't have to be earth-shattering to be traumatic, and if we let those “little T” traumas build up over time without addressing them, we can find ourselves in a constant sate of fight, flight, or freeze.When stress and trauma accumulate over time, we can minimise what triggers us and downplay our experience. Each time we do, we deplete our battery, pushing it from the green zone of calm and energy, to the amber zone of fight-or-flight, and if we're not careful, into the red zone where accessing empathy and compassion – and even good decision-making – is much harder.

S2 EPISODE 011 :: Chatting about all things Motherhood - the good, the bad, and the exhausting. Lacey shares her insight on how the Millennial Mom is torn between the allure of the internet as a source of information, inspiration, community, as well as a creative space to share and connect, and its addictive appeal leading to the inevitable pressures of having to "keep up". Fostering a culture of perfectionism, it's no wonder Mamas are left to feel inadequate, resentful, and burnt out.From online Sisterhood (which brought us two mamas together in the first place), to the toxic nature of comparison, to the testing of boundaries in the latest phenomenon, "Sharenthood", Lacey and I speak candidly about what a mom really NEEDSto survive and thrive in motherhood. Including, navigating a love-hate relationship with the very tool that feeds our creative souls with a platform to express ourselves creatively. But at what cost?Does more necessarily mean better? How do we navigate a barrage of parenting information we are faced with as we scroll through the interwebs? And would reading the captions before judging an IG Mama on her pretty aesthetics, worth the extra time we don't have in the first place?And like clockwork, the cutest little guest makes a surprise appearance at the end - You may want to make your way to our Youtube version of this episode!

What does editing a book and parenting have in common? A ton, actually!   As an editor, your job is to excavate through what you are given and pull out the best from the author. Same goes with good parenting. Your job is to direct your children, but allow them to have their voice heard where they can still shine.Your writing and editing skills crossover with parenting more than you would think. You can use the concepts and skills you've refined over time to not only guide your children, but to advocate for them as well. Whether that be writing to your local school board or having challenging conversations with policy makers to create positive change in your community.Having children doesn't mean you need to stop writing or using your skills. If anything, you can elevate your abilities by having children by getting creative with how you use your skills.Not to mention, kids' imaginations are endless, so if you're ever stuck on a story plot, you can always turn to your little ones for some brilliant inspiration.Joining us on today's episode is Emily Popek, a journalist, school communications professional, and mom of one pre-teen. Emily joins us to discuss how parenting and writing can intertwine, as well as how parenting has changed over the years, and how to reframe struggles in parenting and writing into opportunities, and much more! This is an enlightening conversation with so many nuggets of wisdom that you don't want to miss. Tune in to learn more!Topics discussed in this episode: How children are great resources of inspirationThe concept of a “throwaway book”Why Emily started writing a newsletterThe importance of removing the idea of perfection when writingThe camaraderie in the writing communityThe direction Emily wants to see her newsletter goStruggles in parenting in today's societyJust because parenting is hard doesn't mean it is being done the wrong wayThe power in having challenging conversations in your local communitiesHow strong communication skills can make an impactHow and why Emily became a journalistWriting the elusive headline and catchy hooksErin's joy of editingImportance of finding an editor that allows you to showcase your voiceThe crossover between editing and parentingAbout Emily:Emily Popek is a journalist and school communications professional.

We've talked about burnout before, but on this episode of the Wired to Win podcast, Fernanda digs deeper into why burnout affects one group of workers in particular. Often stereotyped as lazy and entitled, millennials are the first generation in modern history to be worse off than their parents. Millennials have been dealt a challenging hand-economic instability, a housing crisis, education debt, and the disappearance of perks like pensions. These hardships, combined with other emotional factors, have placed millennials in a prime position for burnout. But does it have to be that way?For more information and show notes, go to:https://rewiredglobal.com/podcastWatch our free masterclass: https://rewiredg.com/watchVisit our website: https://rewiredglobal.com/Connect on Linkedin: https://rewiredg.com/linkedinConnect on Instagram: https://rewiredg.com/instagram

“Rachel Hollis is a manifestation of a larger ideology about women's place in society. That if you just try hard enough, all of these structural issues that are making your life really, really hard can be solved if you just wash your face. .” - Anne Helen PetersenAnne Helen Petersen is one of our most essential cultural observers. Her work at Buzzfeed culminated in her 2020 book, Can't Even: How Millennials Became the Burnout Generation. Now she's using Culture Study, her Substack newsletter, to explore everything from The Unified Theory of Peloton to how to make friends.   In the episode, Laura and Anne unpack the faux empowerment of Rachel Hollis, the ways we sell quick fixes to systemic problems (like how a bath bomb will overcome the ways our society devalues women, and, particularly mothers) and the myth of “having it all.”More than ever, this is one to share with your favorite people!Readings mentioned in the show:Culture Study - AHP's newsletter and community. Towards A Unified Theory of Peloton by Anne Helen PetersenHow Millennials Became The Burnout Generation by Anne Helen Petersen“Girl, Wash Your Face” Is A Massive Best-Seller With A Dark Message by Laura TurnerA Quick Explainer On Why People Aren't Happy With Rachel HollisIf you care about these kinds of conversations, we hope you'll become a TMST Plus member.  Episode link: https://www.tmstpod.com/episodes/60-anne-helen-petersen-on-burnout-and-the-myth-of-having-it-allSpotify playlist for this episode: https://open.spotify.com/episode/56aVWMg3xGWSWGCXZzlVa3Here's the transcript: https://tell-me-something-true.simplecast.com/episodes/anne-helen-petersen-on-burnout-and-the-myth-of-having-it-all/transcriptTell Me Something True is a 100% independent podcast.

We're all in a process of reimagining when it comes to work, looking at the changes we've made over the last few years, and trying to figure out what we'll keep, what we'll let go of, and how else we might want to change the way we work in order to feel the way we want to feel. And, what so many are realizing is that we've got more power to reimagine every aspect of work now than we've ever had before. Question is, what do we do with that power? And what do we do with this moment of openness to new ways of working and living?These questions are what we dive into with today's guest, Anne Helen Peterson. Anne is a journalist whose wise, often irreverent, funny, and provocative writing appeared in Buzzfeed, the New York Times and more, before leaving the mainstream to become the voice behind the wildly-popular newsletter, Culture Study. She's also the author of four books, most recently Out of the Office: The Big Problem and Bigger Promise of Working From Home (co-written with Charlie Warzel) and Can't Even: How Millennials Became the Burnout Generation.During our conversation, we talk about everything from where we live and work to the traditional role of the 9-5 work week and how, as we look at what's important to us, companies, businesses and the promise of what remote work can bring, there's an opportunity to change the way we think about work which ultimately then opens the door to shifting old-schoolwork schedules and models across many industries. One of my favorite moments of this conversation is at minute 35:03 when Anne makes a really compelling case for the 4-day work week, showing how she's witnessed its success even in, as she calls them, “fuddy-duddy industries.” We also talk about Ann's power move from mainstream media journalist and big city living to going out on her own as a writer, starting her own subscription newsletter, moving to a remote island, and loving it all. If you're ready to think about working differently, this episode will be a beacon for you.

Are millennials lazy? Or are they branded with the toxic hustle culture mentality? Is it true that no one wants to work anymore or is the system we've been encouraged to work in, not working? These are the questions, and this week, Kat is trying to find some answers. There has been an increasing negative reputation associated with the work ethic and general mindset of millennials over the past couple of years and as a millennial herself, Kat has started to get tired and confused by it. If we are lazy, she wants to know why and if we aren't, she wants to know where this conclusion came from. So this week we are diving straight in with some help from two articles that we HIGHLY suggest you read:   Why Are People Pretending to Love to Work by Erin Griffith  How Millennials Became the Burnout Generation by Helen Anne Peterson   Follow Kat on Instagram: @Kat.Defatta Follow the podcast Instagram: @YouNeedTherapyPodcast Have a question, concern, guest idea, something else?

Sue Bethanis hosts culture critic and author, Anne Helen Petersen. A former senior culture writer for BuzzFeed News, Anne now writes about the future of work, celebrity, burnout, and more at her newsletter, Culture Study, as a full-time venture on Substack. She is the author of four books, most recently Out of Office: The Big Problem and Bigger Promise of Working From Home (co-written with Charlie Warzel) and Can't Even: How Millennials Became the Burnout Generation. Her previous books, Too Fat, Too Slutty, Too Loud and Scandals of Classic Hollywood, were featured in NPR, Elle, and The Atlantic. She received her Ph.D. in media studies from the University of Texas and lives in Lummi Island, Washington.  Sue and Anne discuss these four key aspects of tapping into the promise of remote work: Flexibility – the future of work has to be guided by a new form of flexibility in which the work, not the workers themselves, becomes more malleable.  Culture – a company culture can be shifted, but it has to start with a dramatic rethinking of what management actually looks like, in and outside of the traditional office.  Technologies of the Office – so much of office culture flows from our technology, tools, and design. Here we can see the most profound changes the quickest.  Community – if work were not the primary organizing factor of our lives, we could restructure our relationships with our community outside of work.

Hey Helpers! Okay, fine, let's get serious about this looming cloud of *burnout.* Burnout is a beast lurking in the shadows of the helper's life. Culturally many of us are burned out before we even step into the office, then we endure the work there too. Often, the way we define and address the concept of burnout is already working against us. Tune in while we break it down and explore some ideas of what intersects with the helper's burnout cycle, and what might help us break out of it. We're so glad you're here.

Today we're digging into something that we all NEED, but most of us fail to prioritize. We make this one thing a nice-to-have and the first-to-go. We make it the reward for having worked hard and accomplishing our goals, rather than the other way around. But, if we truly want to live a life of impact, without sacrificing what matters most, then we need to shift the way we think about this one thing: REST. So let's chat about why rest matters, why we struggle to prioritize it, and how we can practically move towards incorporating rest in our lives (even with young kids). If you're ready to pursue your life and dreams from a place of health and wholeness, rather than from a place of striving, then this episode is for you!
