What was said
"And then I experienced burnout in my own life. Um, I mean, if I'm completely honest, I experienced burnout while I was writing this book."
Psychologist and author Angela Duckworth says she experienced burnout while writing “this book”, after previously teaching burnout as an abstract concept. She describes burnout as a work-related state involving exhaustion, feeling detached from the work, and helplessness.
