Hey ladies, how are you doing?

No, seriously.

How are you?

Chances are if you clicked on this blog, you read the title, and it must’ve appealed to you—even a little bit.

The thought of a women’s getaway may have raised your eyebrow, but a women’s getaway for burnout? Oh yeah, now we’re talking.

Stats show that women are burnt out.

Why is this?

Women’s getaway for burnout

Well, I’d say that a large part of it is burnout culture in the corporate world, which is going crazy, but then a large part of it is also the fact that women take on such a large mental load.

There’s this expectation that women have, partially put on themselves and partially put on by others, to constantly be doing things.

Some of this includes working; some is housework; some is social life; some is providing emotional support to loved ones; and the list goes on. All of these things add up.

All of these things take a toll on women and impact them in negative ways.

Women need to get away, and they need to learn how to avoid burnout.
