Wild. Precious. Life.: Building Fire Without Burnout (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798290737300)

Why do so many of us struggle with burnout? Why does burnout often become a cycle? How do we build a life that feels fulfilling, exciting, and full of FIRE, but without the burnout?

Award winning television news journalist Trisha Lawless went through her first major episode of burnout while raising three young kids and working long, intense hours. After leaving her news career for a different field, she experienced a different type of burnout during the stress of marriage struggles. Later, 2020 pandemic pressures led to a third reckoning with burnout. She fought not just get "back on track," but find a new track altogether.

She decided one thing: never again. Trisha began journaling, researching burnout recovery, seeking therapy, and reading the late, acclaimed poet Mary Oliver's words every day. In spite of the chaotic climate of 2025, she has finally found herself happier, more in love, and more at peace than ever.

This collection of relatable personal stories takes you inside authentic moments, including diary excerpts. It also offers up tangible techniques, ideas and solutions that helped her and may fuel YOUR journey. As Trisha says, "We all deserve to enjoy our wild, precious lives. Maybe reading these stories will open a door for someone else to resist being consumed by burnout and start their own path toward a beautiful, slow burn."
