Kinship & Porkchops: How Embracing Community and Sacred Friendship Cures Burnout
Time: Sat 1:00PM
Venue: Relating Arts
Style: Experiential
Content Type: interactive workshop with teaching and conversation
Description: Many of us are experiencing overwhelm or burnout, which often isolates us from one another. But we were created as communal creatures; as author Kaitlin Curtice describes it, there is a thread from our heart center to the heart center of every living being, connecting us and our actions to one another. As an antidote to burnout, Callie Swanlund--author of From Weary to Wholehearted: A Restorative Resource for Overcoming Clergy Burnout--will share how making connections with one another can reduce our stress and lead to flourishing. Together we'll draw inspiration from Jesus, St. Brené Brown, Indigenous wisdom bearers, and the women-led food industry in North Carolina. We'll look at comparison, collaboration, and community, and come away with tools for feeling less weary or alone. You're invited to come be nourished, reflect, share, laugh, and be reminded of your belovedness. (And aren't you at least a little curious about where porkchops fit in?)
