“There’s too many people to help and not enough time or resources.” The mission-driven nonprofit and legal sectors are known for their demanding environments, and staffs’ dedication is a key component to living out the mission and changing communities for the better. However, this intensity can lead to significant stress, feelings of burnout, and a sense of dissatisfaction for many dedicated professionals. Many think leaving their beloved work is the only response left to the overwhelm they feel and see. Yet, within our grasp, there is another world waiting for us—built from the pillars of radical hope, possibility, and interdependence.
