BURNOUT

Women are on the verge of burnout. Their expectations for themselves and their lives are the same as they were before the pandemic. The guilt they feel is extraordinary because they can't do anything 'right.' They are forgoing sleep for responsibilities. Grit, powering through and being Wonder Women are not an option if you are going to sustain mental health. We need to #letgo and change our #expectations. You can't do it all at the level you've expected. What can you CHOOSE not to do today to help sustain your mental health?

This is feeling alllll too real to me right now... Even though I'm not a caregiver, it's still hard. I can't even imagine taking care of a child during all of this!!

The demands are so insane and everyone is feeling like they can't get out of their own way (like your description). It's frightening, exhausting and demoralizing. We need to do what we can to put up limitations and boundaries and redefine what success looks like in this new world. Good luck!
