The Sabbatical Journey: A field guide to prepare for, experience and reorient from a life-changing sabbatical

By: Briggs, Alan

Sabbatical is one of the most transformative tools a leader can experience-if they know how to navigate it.

In a culture of burnout, overwhelm, and constant complexity, The Sabbatical Journey is a practical field guide for leaders who know they need rest-but aren't quite sure how to take it well.

Drawing on years of experience coaching high-impact leaders in various roles-from executives, pastors, and entrepreneurs to nonprofit leaders-Alan Briggs offers a clear roadmap to help you prepare for, experience, and return from a life-changing sabbatical with greater health, fresh vision, and sustainable rhythms to help you live and lead well for the long haul.

This isn't a book full of theory or clich s. Inside, you'll find real tools, proven frameworks, and honest stories from leaders who stepped away from the grind-and came back more grounded, more aligned, and more human.

If you're tired, stuck, or simply feeling off-course, this book will help you understand what a sabbatical is, why it matters, and how it can reshape your leadership-and your life.
