Creating a life you love in music and the arts. For those of us who dreamed of life as a professional artist, the realities of trying to make a career with our creative work can be daunting and demoralizing. We believe there are many ways to make ART work for you and your life. Let go of the false narratives we were sold about starving artists, child prodigies, and ivory-tower experts. Join us instead as we carve out our own paths and fashion a creative life that works for YOU.Briawna Aika Anderson Art Entertainment & Performing Arts

    Burnout
    Jan 9 2026

    Artists and knowledge workers are increasingly vulnerable to burnout in the modern world. Often, the demands of 21st Century living don't accommodate the needs of creatives, and don't mesh with their unique schedules.

    How we measure productivity is the first step on our journey to understanding how and when we become vulnerable to burnout and nervous system collapse. Are we only productive if we're busy? If we have visible content to show?


    Join us as we discuss productivity, burnout, and strategies for healing in the lives of modern artists.
