I can’t do this anymore.

It doesn’t matter how hard I work … I’ll never catch up.

It doesn’t matter how hard I try…I’m just not good enough anymore.

I wish I could retire tomorrow and move to a remote island. 

Sound familiar? As pastors and leaders, you may be even more vulnerable to burnout, a condition that lives at the intersection of overwhelm and sheer exhaustion. We are living and working in a fast-paced culture that rewards busyness. Companies, organizations, and ministries are under-resourced, forced to do more with less and overall overwhelmed especially dealing with this pandemic. Our goals — both professional and personal — are higher. We want to achieve more, to have it all — in essence, to become better jugglers. While, in some respects, we’re living up to the challenge, it can come at a significant cost to our well-being. Essentially, impacting you physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
