Do you struggle with burnout?
As a creative, I go through cycles of being burned out and struggling with self doubt. (yep- even after over 5 years of being in business!)
I was trying to design this morning, and nothing was coming out. I was getting frustrated...but when I'm frustrated, I try to remember go to to The Word- the ultimate self care.
