Walking with God and Preventing Burnout: Renewal Conversation with Janell Wood and Dr. Ioana Popa

by Dr. Ioana Popa

In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, especially as Christian women dedicated to serving others, it's not uncommon to sometimes dismiss the signs of burnout. "It is not happening to me" is a common subconscious thought. thought.

We often push ourselves to the limit, thinking it's our duty in Christ to keep giving without pause, but then feel a sense of subtle shame or guilt when we say no. All this is very common.

But what if there were ways to prevent burnout before it took a toll on our well-being and our connection with God?

Hearing from other Christian women passionate about serving others in Christ is key, especially as they navigate the many ups and downs of life AND are in the hustle and bustle of busy lives.

Join me in this Renewal Conversation with Janell Wood, a truly remarkable woman with a profound faith and deep connection with God, a working mother of 4 and hosting exchange students - whose life took many turns, but kept her eyes on Christ.

Janell shares about her journey, her mission and her own personal routine and practical steps she takes whenever she feels 'running on empty.'

She also brings some important questions about Burnout, so stay until the end for the entire conversation!

🍵 Renewal Conversations are part of our Team For The Soul® - Renewal Nuggets, an Oasis in the Midst of Action, bridging science, psychology, spiritual care and ancient Christian faith.
