Episode notes
In this episode of 23 Journeys: A Network for Creatives, Thato and Naomi break down the truth about burnout. Most creatives don't burn out because of work; they burn out because they work without boundaries. This highlights how much their well-being matters and can help you feel seen and supported. Together, they talk through real-life examples of setting schedules, protecting family time, handling client expectations, and learning when to say no. They also share how to build systems, automate your business, and create sustainable routines so you don't collapse under pressure. Whether you're a photographer, designer, freelancer, or entrepreneur, this episode will help you reset, recharge, and build healthier habits that protect both creativity and mental health.
