Listen "How to Know if You're in Survival Mode"
Episode Synopsis
If you've been feeling like every day is a struggle, you might be carrying more trauma around with you than you think. Join me in this scary (but enlightening!) Halloween episode where I chat with 20-yr. creative industry veteran & Sr. UX Designer, Prescott Perez-Fox, about what happens when you’re constantly operating in survival mode, and ways to begin recovery and heal from this experience. We’ll also discuss the phases and signs of burnout, what this feels like even after you’ve left a job, and how this kind of trauma can create invisible limitations in your future creative career. We also talk about the difference between misalignment and burnout, and how to successfully transition from a traumatic job into a safe space. LET’S ROCK!
