In this powerful episode, Sara addresses compassion fatigue from a faith-based perspective, unpacking how burnout can quietly lead to the dehumanization of both patients and caregivers. Through the emotional story of Kevin—a patient navigating pain and isolation—Sara brings to light the deep personal cost of emotional exhaustion in healthcare. Drawing on Scripture, including Hagar’s encounter with God, she invites nurses to reflect on their motives, reconnect with their purpose, and find lasting rest in God’s presence. This is a must-listen for anyone feeling drained at the bedside and longing for true renewal.
