New Episode: Stress is Killing You and You Need a Better Support System to Avoid Burnout and Thrive - RAL 84

On this episode, Stress is Killing You and You Need a Better Support System to Avoid Burnout and Thrive, I share a short teaching on the correlation between your level of stress and your level of support. Stress feels like a constant battle, if it’s not one thing it’s another. If you were asked what is stressing you out right now and if you were given a pen and piece of paper, you’d start making a list. Often the more stressful life become the more we tell ourselves, "Put your head down and work harder". The majority of us have an inadequate support system for the level of stress we are leading under. This is a dangerous spot for any leader to be in. It’s the root cause of addiction, toxic behavior, and ultimately burnout. This is a really important conversation when it comes to being a life-giving giving leader for life. This episode is direct and practical. 

Episode Quote: 

"You need habits and relationships that can offer you the support you need right now, not the support you needed 10 or twenty years ago. I love that you still have friends from college, but the areas of your life that matter most right now need mentors, not friends."
