Course 1, Discussion 3: Avoiding Burnout
7 Cups is founded on a community of passionate volunteers who lovingly dedicate their time to providing support.
You may face what is called burnout during your journey. You may have already faced this in your real life. Burnout is very real and must be recognized. You can't help fuel someone else when your tank is empty, after all!
To address and learn about burnout, we have created a slidedeck on how to avoid burnout.
✒️ We also recommend this growth path on preventing burnout at 7 Cups.
✒️ Activity: Take 5 steps on the burnout prevention path linked above. Post in this thread to let us know you have completed at least 5 steps.
✒️ Please reply to at least 1 of your peers in this thread with encouraging or supportive words!

Keep up the good work! :D
I have completed 5+ steps of the recommended path, it has been incredibly helpful to read through these resources and spend a bit time reflecting on how I structure my volunteering time and how I might do this more effectively in future.
It has also reminded me of how important it is to reach out to the wider 7Cups community when in need of support.
@KellyBx
I need to spend more time reflecting on how I structure my time volunteering as well, thank you for your thoughtful insights Kelly & giving me a perspective to think about :)
