    Sometimes we get super discouraged when we are putting in all sorts of effort and not seeing tangible results...we've all been there, right?

  • Smiling Through the "Chaos"; Leadership Burnout with Marissa Price

    This week I'm bringing the Burnout Conversation to a close with a special guest:
    Marissa Price
    @caffeinatedtheologian

    Have you ever heard the term "compassion fatigue"?
    It is a condition that can lead to burnout and is experienced by people in caregiving roles and often affects those in leadership/ministry too.

    I invited Marissa to share her experience with AND recovery from burnout.   She also shares what scripture has to say about burnout prevention, as well as some of the strategies that she has implemented in her life to prevent herself from burning out again.

    GET TO KNOW OUR "SISTER-GUEST":
    Marissa Price is an ordained pastor who holds her Master of Theology and is currently pursuing a Master of Divinity at Denver Seminary. She's a teacher, she has served as a  missionary in Central Eurasia and France and has been part of many church plants across the United States.

    Marissa is passionate about the local church and seeing others discover the truth of Scripture. When she’s not sipping an iced coffee or writing about theology as the Caffeinated Theologian, she can most likely be found busting out dance moves and laughing with her favourite people.

  • Is this Depression or Burnout? How to Tell the Difference

    When we remain in a state of burnout for too long it can lead to depression, however, Depression and Burnout are two separate conditions with a few overlapping symptoms.

    I created this episode for a bunch of reasons; the main reason was to help you to clearly differentiate between these two "companion" conditions.

    This series IS about burnout and there is NO WAY I was just going to tell you all about burnout, leave you with a bunch of symptoms and no way to get past them? (I wouldn't do that to you, Sis) so listen all the way to the end for some strategies that you can start implementing right away, to start your journey of recovery from burnout!

  • The 3 Types of Burnout

    When we blow past our emotional, mental and physical limitations too often and for too long, we end up burning ourselves out...

    Did you know that there are 3 types of Burnout and 5 stages?
    This week I'm sharing them with you and a little bit of my personal experience with being burned out.

    Burnout is an easy condition to miss if you aren't clear on the symptoms, but by the end of this week's episode, you'll have enough info to identify if you may be dealing with the symptoms of burnout!

  • Are you Stressed Out or Burned Out?

    I’m sure you’ve heard the word Burnout but do you know what it actually means to be burnt out or why it happens?

    In this week's episode I'll be sharing about:

    1. What burnout is and isn’t
    2. The Physical, Emotional and Behavioural Signs and Symptoms of Burnout
    3. How you tell the difference between being Stressed Out or Burnout

    As well as a few other things. Burnout is a very real condition and studies show that it is likely to go undetected for many years. By the end of the episode I hope you have a clearer understanding of what it is and hopefully shed some light on whether or not you may be dealing with burnout in your life.
