About this listen
Emotional Female charts Kadota's rugged journey through ambition and dedication to exploitation and eventual collapse - and beyond. Yumiko Kadota is a voice for her generation when it comes to work practices and burnout, but she's also someone other generations can look to as a symptom of what's acceptable in the workplace.©2021 Yumiko Kadota (P)2021 Penguin Random House Australia

raw and honest
A lovely book, so easy to listen to and special that the author narrated it. As someone in the medical profession, I just found this book so real and relatable and brave. Many thanks to the author for sharing these insights into her life and for sharing this story, for calling out sexism, racism and nepotism, and for highlighting the importance of mental health and wellbeing for junior doctors.

A story everyone needs to hear!
This is the type of book a Sci-Fi nerd like myself would never normally listen to, however, I am so glad I did.
The authors story is one a lot of us can relate to, you don't need to be in the medical field to understand.
There are a lot of things that systemically need to be addressed in many modern workplaces, and whilst we can't always get the changes over night, books like this can encourage us to either speak out against how we are being treated, or in my case, make me more aware of how I may be treating co-workers and people around me.
5 out 5 would recommend!

An older emotional female medical professional
Thank you Yumiko for giving voice to the experiences of so many in our profession. I also found healing in academia. I am confident a successful career lies ahead for you. I hope every senior clinician with responsibilities for junior medical staff reads your book and reflects on their role in perpetuating the abusive system.

Excellent story, I highly recommend.
Such a brave story to tell. I hearing about Yumiko's journey and what she went through and I hope the younger generation in all professions hear this story because unfortunately it's a battlefield out there. In the end she won by speaking up.

Absolutely loved this book.
I'm a nurse of 30 years. I'm 51 now and have seen a lot in healthcare.
The book made me sad that our culture does this to others. Yumiko's book is beautifully written and loved her narration. She is brave and articulate.
I enjoyed her story and really recommend this read.
