Anne Helen Petersen On How to Overcome Writer's Burnout

   

My special podcast guest is Anne Helen Petersen, Senior Culture Writer for BuzzFeed News.

Last year, Anne wrote a story for that website called How Millennials Became The Burnout Generation. The piece immediately went viral not only for its dead-on observations about the chronic stress that plagues her generation but also for its criticism of the working-all-the-time culture that we all inhabit—no matter what our age. On the pod, we talk about how we got here and what we can do to overcome writer's burnout.

You can find a link to the Audible version of Anne’s story here.
