Most leaders know they need rest. Very few know how to take it well.
The Sabbatical Journey podcast exists to change that. Hosted by Alan Briggs, founder of Sabbatical Coaching Group and one of the most trusted sabbatical coaches in the country, this show gives leaders the practical wisdom, honest guidance, and real stories they need to prepare for, experience, and reorient from a life-changing sabbatical.
Alan has personally walked through three sabbaticals and has coached hundreds of leaders through every phase of the journey. He knows what burnout actually feels like. He knows what the thaw process does to a leader. And he knows what's waiting on the other side when a sabbatical is received well.
This podcast follows the same framework Alan uses with every leader he coaches. Demystify. Prepare. Experience. Reorient. Whether you're exploring sabbatical for the first time, actively preparing for one, or trying to make the most of what you discovered while you were away, there's an episode here for exactly where you are.
Sabbatical isn't a vacation. It isn't a reward. It isn't something you earn after enough years of hard work.
It's a gift. And this podcast will show you how to receive it.
