Do you ever feel like your spirit is broken?
Do you feel like you can't put yourself back together despite your best efforts?
Please do not miss this episode. My guest, Christopher Cook, has such powerful words about a broken spirit and how it’s different from (but related to) depression and burnout. We also dig into a real time discussion of the dark night of the soul. This conversation connected so many dots for me, and I cannot wait for you to hear it. Here’s what we cover:
1. The painful circumstances that nearly broke Christopher's spirit (7:00)
2. Recovering from survival mode (12:59)
3. What is a broken spirit? (15:32)
4. Chris’s experience of a dark night of the soul (25:07)
5. The true meaning of surrender (30:46)
6. How to support someone going through a dark night of the soul (41:12)
