Slowing Down Stories: Moving from creative burnout to living a fulfilling artistic life, with Tessa Waters
Episode 17 - Join me this week for a conversation with multi award winning comedian Tessa Waters about her experience going through and recovering from creative burnout.
We talk about the success she achieved touring her comedy and cabaret shows around the world in major festivals and the cost it eventually took on her health.
We chat about life after burnout and creating a fulfilling artistic life that is also in alignment with Tessa’s energy and her learnings about moving more slowly and how this is bringing her joy.
We also talk about:
- The signals our bodies give us about doing too much
- The hustle culture of the performance industry and the expectations that come with it
- Achievement and success and how Tessa has shifted what that means to her
- Scarcity mentality and how that plays a role in burnout
- Making money from your art in a sustainable way
- How to follow creative impulses that create joy and how they can open up new opportunities
