Burnout Isn’t Failure: God’s Invitation to Rest and Renewal

Send us Fan Mail

In this episode of the Men’s Divorce Recovery Podcast, we talk with Keith Cole—a Marine Corps combat veteran and author of Burnout: God’s Recovery Plan—about why burnout after divorce isn’t failure, but often the result of carrying too much for too long while trying to do everything right. We break down how the “just push through” mindset can quietly lead to emotional, physical, and spiritual exhaustion, why burnout is not a lack of faith, and how it can actually be an invitation from God to slow down, surrender control, and begin real recovery. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, numb, or worn out, this episode will help you understand what’s happening and give you practical steps to reconnect with God, regain your strength, and start rebuilding with purpose. 

Bible Verse Inspiration: Matthew 11:28 —  “Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”
