These Compulsive Mental Habits Fuel Burnout in Pastors | Devin Akers

They lose it one habit at a time, the way they scroll, the way they say yes when they mean no, the way they treat hard emotions like the enemy instead of a signal. Devin Akers has a rare seat to speak into this. He's a pastor and licensed counselor, currently serving as Senior Pastor of Covenant Life and Stello Church in the Raleigh-Durham area, and after over a decade in ministry he went back to school to get his clinical counseling license. In this episode, Devin and Ryan talk about the subtle habits robbing leaders of their peace, what it took to pursue counseling training while still leading a church full time, and what he's learned sitting on both sides of the room, the pulpit and the counseling chair. If you've felt exhausted and can't quite name why, this conversation will help.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
