EPISODE 118 | The Hidden Cost of Clergy Burnout with Stephanie Dunn

Burnout doesn’t usually arrive all at once.It builds slowly, in the spaces no one sees. The extra call you take on your day off. The expectations that are never clearly defined but always feel too high. The quiet pressure to keep showing up, no matter what it costs you.For many clergy women, and helpers more broadly, burnout isn’t about the big, visible moments. It’s the accumulation of everything beneath the surface.In this conversation, Stephanie Dunn shares what burnout actually is, why it’s different from compassion fatigue, and what it really takes to recover. From psychological safety to agency to the loss of self that can happen along the way, this is a grounded look at what it means to care for others without losing yourself.***Sign up for my FREE workshop on healing your triggers at https://www.brandifleckcoaching.com/self-healing-the-root-workshop
