Solution
L'BURN offers an innovative solution by creating the BURN'ettes community, the Maison des BURN'ettes and local relays, a first-of-its-kind initiative in France dedicated to solidarity between women facing parental or professional burnout. Using a holistic approach, the association provides comprehensive support at every stage of the rebuilding process, from initial listening just after the collapse to professional remobilization at the end of the process. The house and relays, co-managed by beneficiaries and professionals, offer workshops, discussion groups, sessions with psychologists, coaches, lawyers and social workers to provide the broadest possible support for all individual situations.
In addition to the reconstruction program, the association carries out tailored prevention initiatives for companies and the general public, involving peer-help as a fundamental principle, in particular by training individuals and BURN'ettes to become sentinels within their work organizations.
Finally, the association's mission is to coordinate those involved in care in the health, social inclusion and gender equality sectors, as well as to advocate, notably through involvement in various research projects aimed at improving recognition of burnout and changing the law.

This inspiring challenge raised awareness of this disease, which affects almost one in 8 women in their lifetime, with 61,214 new cases estimated in 2023. Breast cancer remains, sadly, the leading cause of cancer death in women.
But what exactly was the Défi d'Elles?
For 3 days, from October 18 to 20, 2024, participants took on an incredible sporting challenge in the magnificent landscapes of Seignosse and Soorts-Hossegor.
Part of the funds raised will be donated to the Jeune et Rose association, which works to prevent breast cancer around 3 key projects:
👉 Les Tétonnantes: uniting young patients affected by the disease.
👉 Alerte Rose: raising awareness among healthcare professionals.
👉 Télététon: conducting innovative prevention initiatives for women and young girls.
The participants covered 45 km in 3 days in an atmosphere that was 100% challenge, 100% solidarity and 100% whaou!
🏔️ 15 km Trail
🏃♀️ 10 km Run & Paddle
🚴♀️ 20 km Mountain Bike
🧘♂️ Wellness workshops: yoga, surfing and more.
It was a weekend filled with solidarity and exceeding of self for a cause close to our hearts.
A big thank you for your precious support and difts!
✨ Closing of the BURN'ette is BACK Promo 2023/2024 program ✨
Dear difteurs,
We're coming to the end of a wonderful adventure with our BIBs from the 2023/2024 class. This new edition of the BURN'ette is back program has been marked by resilience, confidence, joy, gratitude, friendship, sharing, sisterhood, caring, and deep emotions. 🌿
This year, we were lucky enough to accompany two promotions: 🌸 Les Girondines who followed the program face-to-face at the Maison des BURN'ettes.
🌸 Les non Girondines who were able to enjoy the program remotely.
With weekly workshops, individualized coaching, and precious moments of exchange, each BURN'ette was able to rebuild her professional and personal path, surrounded by support and love.
Bravo to all these courageous women who took up the challenge of professional remobilization after a burn-out. We are infinitely proud of your journey! 💪✨
Thank you to our donors who support this project!

Why we love it?
Burnout is a growing societal problem, underpinned by a host of issues, not least the mental burden borne by women. L'BURN offers a long-term solution to this taboo and omnipresent subject.
Trying to reconcile work, children and home... one day I just collapsed. For 2 years, it was a real obstacle course to get out of it.
