151: What To Look For In A Retreat (And What To Expect At Mine)

How do we pour into ourselves so we have enough energy, time and focus for all the people who need us?

How do we stay connected to our practice, since it should be the foundation our whole teaching life is built on?

How do we stay inspired in our teaching without investing thousands of dollars in continuing education each year?

It is not easy! But creating time for our own practice and study is essential.

Today on the podcast I am going to share a story from a retreat I was on in Thailand. I was two weeks into a three-week trip when I realized I was as busy and exhausted as I was at home. The truth hit me like a ton of bricks, and that moment was the beginning of a lot of change for me. 

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• what was happening the moment I realized I needed to make some big changes

• how I think about spiritual study and self care now

• what well digging and well refilling looks like in different seasons

• the difference between being burned out and being overwhelmed

• and how to address each one

• what I’ll be doing at my retreat to address all of these needs!
