Product Information

Too many of us work through burnout and sacrifice our work/life balance to get ahead in our careers. I started this book before going on holiday and decided to take a digital detox for a week and read the rest whilst away- when I had made the time to REALLY read it and digest the content. You may have heard friends or therapists toss the word boundary around casually, but what does this mean? National Book Award winner Jacqueline Woodson and two-time Pura Belpré Illustrator Award winner Rafael López have teamed up to create a poignant, yet heartening book about finding courage to connect, even when you feel scared and alone.

Although she suggests reaching out to co-workers who may be having mental health difficulties I did wonder about confidentiality and trust.
