As she uncovers the darker side of calling, Molloy steers readers toward biblical insight and practical action that restore a healthier experience of vocation.

Highly recommended for anyone flirting with burnout in their current role."--Joanna Meyer, founder and executive director of Women, Work, & Calling
"The culture sugarcoats and oversimplifies work as a calling with 'live your bliss' and 'do what you love' mantras. The truth is far more complex and so much richer. In Healthy Calling, Arianna Molloy explores this reality thoughtfully, rigorously, and personally. With deep humility and great clarity, she offers a fresh, grounded, eminently practical perspective on living a calling in the real world. I couldn't put it down, and I can't recommend it highly enough."--Bryan Dik, author of Redeeming Work and coauthor of Make Your Job a Calling
"Arianna Molloy has done more than write a professional, practical, and personal book on what it means to be truly called to a job and a career, all the while managing the burnout that plagues so many. Healthy Calling is an exceptional road map for pursuing your callings in healthy and sustainable ways by developing a dynamic relationship with the Caller. Whether you are a student or a seasoned professional, Dr. Molloy's thoughtful research and experience will provide the confidence you need to live a life of humility and gratitude as you pursue the callings God has given you."--Stan Jantz, CEO of the Come and See Foundation

"It's a beautiful thing to have a calling and not just a career . . . to feel as if every time the paycheck hits your account, you're robbing the bank because it doesn't feel like work. But it's also a dangerous place to be, and don't I know it. When what you do is what you love, it's more than easy to transgress boundaries and freefall into burnout and even shame. What then? In Healthy Calling, Dr. Arianna Molloy gives us much needed guidance. This will be a book I return to time and again."--Bryan Loritts, author of Enduring Friendship and teaching pastor at the Summit Church
