3.10 Finding Your Cure to Creative Burnout with Suzy Glaskie
For the final episode of season 3, today I’m sharing a conversation with Suzy Glaskie, health coach and founder of Peppermint Wellness. Suzy helps burn-out perfectionists reclaim their health, energy and emotional resilience - something I was in desperate need of in August 2024. Suzy coached me for the second half of last year, and in this conversation we discuss how I reached burnout in my own practice as an illustrator, and the work we did together to find a way out of that, towards a more balanced, happy and infinitely more creative life.If you’ve reached a point of creative burnout I hope some of the things we discussed in today’s episode were helpful for you. Thank you and I hope you’ve enjoyed listening to this season of Creative Rituals! 🩷 Find Suzy hereFind Georgie hereLinksThe Change Cycle Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
