Reviews

Reading this wise and brilliant book is a crucial act of radical compassion for self and other. The tone and content are a kind of soothing balm that inspires all exhausted, brilliant, worn out, beautiful, and frazzled caregivers to slow down, become intentional, and make space to heal themselves so that they can do so more effectively with those they serve. --Doreen Dodgen-Magee, Psy.D., author of Restart: Designing a Healthy Post-Pandemic Life With the recent increase in burnout among healing professionals, Reda provides us with a timely and welcome book. His detailed recommendations for avoiding burnout are clear and practical. I particularly like his insistence on prioritizing selfcare, as health care workers often feel that they have to put themselves last. The book will also help readers deal with their own traumas--within themselves, their families, and workplaces that have become toxic.--David M. Allen, M.D., author of Coping With Critical, Demanding, and Dysfunctional Patients
