Shifting Culture Ep. 201 Alan Briggs Returns - A Lighter Way to Live and Lead in a Heavy World
I have seen leaders, ministry workers, and missionaries burnout over and over. There has to be something that works. Alan Briggs says part of it is a training issue. We train for the launch, but not for longevity. In this episode, Alan discusses leadership burnout and how to cultivate healthy, sustainable habits to avoid burnout. Alan shares insights from his experience coaching leaders, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing self-care, quality time with family, boundaries, and living intentionally from one's identity rather than just doing tasks. We discuss practical strategies like limiting caffeine, daily exercise, prioritizing sleep, Sabbath, and deep work without distractions. Alan encourages leaders to look back on victories, within on progress, and ahead to priorities to gain clarity and reduce overwhelm. It’s possible to lead from who we are, develop healthy sustainable habits and avoid burnout. Join us for the anti-burnout movement.
Alan Briggs is a mountain guide for the leadership journey. Alan helps catalytic leaders leverage catalytic moments for systemic change. He does this through Leadership Coaching, Sabbatical Coaching, Working Genius training and consulting at Stay Forth. He also connects leaders in meaningful ways through a hub and ecosystem in Colorado Springs called Gather. He has one incredible wife and four incredible kids and loves finding adventures in the Rockies. His newest book, AntiBurnout, helps leaders find lightness and longevity.
