This time has been healing in ways I didn’t realize I needed: meandering hikes, slow mornings, deep laughter, hours of unscheduled space to breathe, to remember who I am beyond the grind. And yet, the world hasn’t paused. News keeps breaking. Injustices persist. Needs in our communities still call out. There are realities waiting for us when we return—some that weigh heavy, some simply unfinished. It’s easy to feel guilt about stepping away. To wonder if rest is a luxury we can’t afford, or worse, a form of disengagement. But I’ve been reminded again and again that rest is not a retreat from responsibility—it’s a re-rooting. Rest is resistance. In a culture that equates worth with productivity, choosing play and presence is radical. Allowing joy, choosing stillness, tending to your own body and spirit—these are not indulgences. They’re what prepare us to re-enter the world more whole, more grounded, and more ready to meet what’s next with clarity, compassion, and conviction. Whether you’re in a season of movement or stillness, of transition or tension, I hope you’ll give yourself permission to pause. Rest doesn’t mean forgetting what matters. It’s how we remember who we are and why we care in the first place. https://www.stephaniebdunn.com/blog/burnout-by-a-thousand-notifications monthly 0.5 2025-06-24 https://www.stephaniebdunn.com/blog/when-the-ground-is-exposed monthly 0.5 2025-05-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63f4e8c74401e2751d89c6ca/3ac57188-91b5-4c15-8ce3-2ac08e5fd0fc/IMG_5220.jpg Blog - When the Ground is Exposed - In the spring of 2020, after a powerful derecho swept through Nashville, I stood on my front porch and saw dozens of city trucks rolling by. The soundtrack of those days was the hum of chainsaws, cutting through fallen trees in a city that just couldn’t seem to catch a break. It was another moment of upheaval—a reminder of how much had been stripped away, exposed, and disrupted. Taking a walk through my neighborhood, I saw massive trees uprooted and earth laid bare. There was no hiding the damage. In the aftermath, I wondered: What else has been exposed? And what is the light now making visible that we’ve overlooked for too long? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63f4e8c74401e2751d89c6ca/56fdfb2d-abfe-4858-bba6-d308b74e757f/restore+brochure.jpg Blog - When the Ground is Exposed - We’ve been through so much since then—storms, a pandemic, societal reckonings, and political chaos that is destroying families and communities. These moments have peeled back the layers on our lives, our communities, our systems. They’ve also laid bare our deep need for one another—for belonging, for care, for spaces where we can show up honestly and be held with compassion. This fall, RESTORE cohorts will return—small groups rooted in reflection, connection, and well-being*. These spaces are a response to what the light has revealed: that too many of us are walking around exhausted, isolated, or unsure how to tend our own needs while caring for others. RESTORE offers space to catch your breath, to reconnect with your purpose, and to be reminded that you are not alone. May we be people who take seriously what the light reveals—not only the broken places, but the beauty, the courage, and the hope that glimmers through the cracks. May we watch over one another in love. *The current RESTORE cohorts are for women in ministry. If you’re interested in working with me to create other cohorts, let me know! I’d love to work together. https://www.stephaniebdunn.com/blog/a-season-for-reconnection monthly 0.5 2025-04-30 https://www.stephaniebdunn.com/blog/7z7vocx49b5kry1qxafxfqvpoahqhn monthly 0.5 2025-03-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63f4e8c74401e2751d89c6ca/8dbc5782-9587-4450-8ad1-fb22743dd856/20190517_092023.jpg Blog - No Going Back April in Maine by May Sarton The days are cold and brown, Brown fields, no sign of green, Brown twigs, not even swelling, And dirty snow in the woods. But as the dark flows in The tree frogs begin Their shrill sweet singing, And we lie on our beds Through the ecstatic night, Wide awake, cracked open. There will be no going back. https://www.stephaniebdunn.com/blog/creativity-amp-coaching monthly 0.5 2025-03-03 https://www.stephaniebdunn.com/blog/the-role-of-coaching-for-clergy-well-being monthly
