For decades, the Australian Dream promised home ownership, stable careers, and a comfortable life. But for many Australians today, that dream has become a source of stress, debt, and exhaustion.
The Australian Dream Is Exhausting examines the economic pressures, housing challenges, workplace expectations, and social pressures that are quietly wearing Australians down. It explains why so many are working harder just to stay in place, why financial security feels out of reach, and why chasing the “dream” can leave people burnt out and frustrated.

More than just a critique, this book offers practical solutions. It shows how Australians can rethink their approach to work, money, and lifestyle, set realistic priorities, and reclaim energy and purpose without abandoning ambition. By combining clear reasoning with actionable advice, it provides a roadmap for navigating modern Australian life more sustainably — so the dream can feel achievable, not exhausting.

The Australian Dream Is Exhausting is essential reading for anyone who has ever felt overworked, under pressure, or trapped by expectations, offering clarity, insight, and a way forward.
