Brené Brown discusses burnout in terms of vulnerability, boundaries, and resilience. She believes that burnout arises not just from excessive demands but from neglecting what restores us—rest, connection, and meaning.
Burnout reflects a deeper issue: losing ourselves amid a culture that equates busyness with worth. This group spiritual direction invites us to explore spiritual practices as sources of renewal. Together, we will cultivate habits that nourish our souls and support our callings.

We must reflect on what truly matters beyond productivity—relationships, creativity, joy. Transformation requires community, where we learn that we are more than our outputs. Through connection, we embrace humanity, allowing ourselves to rest and reimagine our lives. This work is challenging, but as we find strength in community, we nurture our spiritual resilience, helping each other on this journey.

Let’s tell our stories as lay leaders. Let’s embrace this together and hold one another up.
