About The Burnout Study in Women

The Burnout Study in Women  is the most comprehensive and recent IRB-reviewed academic survey on burnout and women. It was launched because existing data on drivers of burnout today for women were inadequate. We must understand root causes to find solutions. The study will be performing ongoing analyses and publications of these findings.

quotations

“I am a working professional with three children. The last year has depressed me but I try my best to keep the spirits up for our whole family, it is exhausting. I provide emotional support for my father, mother, kids and spouse. I do not see my friends enough. Who is looking out for me?? I bet you can guess the answer.”
“I still can’t get everything done that I need or want to do. I’m feeling guilty for not being home with my kids and being the parent I want to be or that I think my kids should have…. I find value in what I do both at home and at work but also feel I fall short in both those roles.”
“I am working so many hours, I feel I am neglecting my kids and husband, and I always have a feeling of anxiety of never being good enough or knowing if I am doing the right thing at either work or home.”
“I have an overall feeling of guilt as a parent that I could be doing more. I don’t feel like a bad parent, just that I could and should do more or better or different, even though I don’t know exactly what else I should be doing. It’s just a general anxiety or unease of 'am I doing enough?'”
