Season 3 Wrap Up: Why Taking a Sabbatical Can Prevent Burnout Before Collapse

Send us Fan MailIn this Season 3 wrap-up episode of After the Tones Drop, Cinnamon steps away from guest interviews and clinical deep dives for a different kind of conversation: a check-in, a pause, and a summer sign-off.After a full season of powerful conversations, travel, trainings, conferences, client work, and writing, Cinnamon is taking a summer sabbatical from the podcast. This break is not because something terrible happened. Cinnamon talks honestly about burnout, recovery, integrity, and the uncomfortable practice of taking care of yourself before everything falls apart. She also shares why this pause is necessary for finishing her book on adverse childhood experiences, first responder culture, trauma, shame, coping, survival, and what happens when the child we once were keeps showing up in the adult uniform.This episode is a reminder that rest does not have to be earned through collapse. Sometimes stepping back is not a sign that things are bad. Sometimes stepping back is how you keep things good.After the Tones Drop will return September 2. During the break, Cinnamon will be writing, resting, playing, and opening submissions for first responders who want to share their stories for the book.To submit your first responder story of childhood adversity and occupational exposure click here: https://yxvd94e88gi.typeform.com/FR-ACES-StoryDISCLAIMER: After the Tones Drop has been presented and sponsored by Whole House Counseling.  After the Tones Drop is for informational purposes only and does not constitute for medical or psychological advice.
