Together they explore a reality many pastors and leaders face: carrying the weight of leadership while privately struggling with anxiety, burnout, or emotional exhaustion. Drawing from both biblical insight and psychological research, Dr. Chappelle discusses why mental and emotional struggles are more common among leaders than many realize, the myths that keep Christians silent about mental health, and the practical steps leaders can take to move toward healing and resilience. This episode offers honest conversation, biblical perspective, and hopeful guidance for anyone who is leading others while trying to care for their own soul.Connect with Dr. Wayne Chappelle:DrChappelle.comPsyOptimal.comLinkedin: www.linkedin.com/in/wayne-chappelle-3990b6185Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr.waynechappelle/Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@psyoptimalsportsPurchase Heal Your Hurting Mind Book: https://amzn.to/4bwfSEj (affiliate link)Purchase Christian Leader Sight Planner (a tool that has drastically changed Ryan’s productivity): Black Cover – https://amzn.to/3JpBHvm Blue Cover – https://amzn.to/4ouFRB9 Green Cover – https://amzn.to/4oXVLUrPurchase The Christian Leader Blueprint book today: https://www.ryanfranklin.org/blueprintbookConnect with Ryan: Email: [email protected] Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rnfranklin/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rnfranklin/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rnfranklin/ Website: https://www.ryanfranklin.org Audio mastering by Apostolic Audio: https://www.apostolic-audio.com#leadership, #thoughtleadership, #ministry, #pastor, #pastors, #churches, #leadershiptraining, #churchleader, #churchleaders, #influence, #leadershipdevelopment, #coaching, #executivecoach, #leadershipcoaching, #productivitycoach, #productivity, #growthmindset, #theproductiveleader, #ChristianLeader, #ChristianLeadership, #LeadershipPodcast, #FaithAndBusiness, #PodcastInterview, #ChristianEntrepreneurship, #KingdomImpact, #PodcastInspiration, #LeadershipJourney, #PurposeDriven, #ChristianPodcast, #LeadershipEssentials, #LeadershipFundamentalsSend us Fan Mail
