What does a pastor do when he is not okay? Jason Smith was burned out after covering pain with performance for decades. His coping mechanism was service, describing his relationships with the people he served as codependent.  When the limitations of the global pandemic created isolation, he was unable to receive energy and purpose from others, so his unconscious facade fractured, making him feel trapped.  Thinking like no area of his life was good, he felt hopeless.  Listen to this episode to find out how a dedicated ministry leader and professional helper took steps to get well.
