It starts with the desire to give your all and ends with exhaustion, health problems, and a sense of emptiness. It is a true trial by fire. But you can emerge stronger. Gentle values help in this: authenticity instead of perfection, cooperation instead of competition, support instead of loneliness. The key is changing beliefs and discovering new ways of being – both at work and in life. Trial by Fire is a wise, empathetic, and practical book. It will help you recognize the signs of burnout and better understand what is happening to you. The author guides you through seven stages of transformation, combining personal experiences with research and expert knowledge. She also gives voice to experts whose advice provides support during difficult professional moments. This book will help you regain energy, inner peace – and meaning.

For many suffering from burnout, it can become both a lifesaving warning and an impulse for life transformation. Prof. Bartłomiej Dobroczyński, Head of the Department of General Psychology, Institute of Psychology, Jagiellonian University Trial by Fire is a book we greatly need today. In a world full of demands, pressure, and constant bombardment of stimuli, it is easy to cross your own boundaries and lose the rhythm that was once familiar to us. Danuta Rocławska not only makes us aware of what burnout is, confronts us with what may be difficult, but most importantly shows that a return is possible. To yourself, to balance, to energy, and to meaning. It is an important read that reminds us that change is part of life, and letting go of roles that no longer serve us can be the beginning of something new.
