As promised, we are following up this week's episode with a segment dedicated to the human giver syndrome as defined in Emily and Amelia Nagoski's book Burnout: Unlocking the Secret to the Stress Cycle. Human giver syndrome offers insight into the unique stressors that come with caregiving or being the nurturer in intimate relationships. Human givers often experience guilt, shame and judgement, in addition to stress, when not acting in service to the human beings in their sphere. This episode is a call to empathy and compassion for all of the human givers - we see you.
