Refilling The Well

by Claris Lam

What happens when you overwhelm the well that represents your energy and wellbeing? It's drained, and you burn out. All you can do next is refresh and refill it to sustain yourself again.

Refilling The Well is a poetry chapbook that reflects on the harms of hustle culture and societal expectations of reaching success, including burnout. It also reflects on how to heal from burnout and remembering that you're more than just your accomplishments. Fans of Lang Leav and Atticus will enjoy Refilling The Well's free verse poetry.

With a world fueled by our phones and the small worlds inside of them, "Refilling The Well" provides a journey of becoming overwhelmed with the systems in place to keep us hooked and wanting more, from our relationships, our friends and our lives, to putting the screen down and becoming present in the moment and to not give into the hustle hype that consumes most of the world we live in.
