Book Club: The Ambition Trap with Amina AlTai

from Too Niche? · host Bleav + What’s Your Journey?

Introducing Too Niche?’s unofficial book club—today we’re talking The Ambition Trap by Amina AlTai. I’m joined by Amina to explore what it really means to move from burnout to purpose. We get into the post-girlboss reckoning, the zone of genius vs. the zone of “meh,” and how redefining ambition can reshape our work, creativity, and everyday lives.

Wounded Warriors of the Cross Gary Pastoral and clergy mental health is a mostly ignored area, especially by those who live their lives as pastors in the clergy. The stigma of mental health within those who serve in the shadow of the cross is something that invokes the stigma of fear. Many of those in the clergy will choose to suffer in their despair rather than reaching out for help. Sometimes those suffering choose to wait until it's too late to get the real help that they need. At Wounded Warriors of the Cross our mission is to lift the stigma and the veil of silence that encompasses clergy mental health and assist those who suffer in silence. Wounded Warriors of the Cross is here to shed the light of Christ's love into those dark places.
