The SoapBox is a lost-and-found box full of the ideas left behind, the ones people don't feel comfortable discussing but need to be brought into the public space and discussed. It's also a collection of high school students looking to provide a space for controversial issues, complex topics, and any sort of out-there ideas that don't have a place in common, everyday conversations.

Vol. 15 | Burnout | Pt. 2

Monday, July 18, 2022 • Duration 36:05

Whether if it’s in school or the workplace, burnout has become incredibly prevalent under the competitive, cutthroat culture most people are accustomed to. According to the internet, symptoms of “Burnout syndrome” include exhaustion, cynicism, and loss of efficacy. In general terms, to be burnt out is to feel constantly depleted and unable to recharge.

In Part 2 of Volume 15, The Soapbox invited Community Center Shanghai (CCS) counselor Bella Wu to discuss submissions and provide professional advice to symptoms of burnout.
