The 4 Phases of Creative Burnout
Burnout doesn't happen overnight.
It progresses through specific phases—each with distinct
warning signs, interventions, and costs.

Phase 1: The Invisible Overload
You're stretched thin but still performing. "Everyone's busy.

This is just how it is. I'll rest when things calm down."
But things never calm down. You're working nights and weekends,
skipping meals, canceling plans.

Tired but functional. So you keep going.

The cost: Phase 1 becomes Phase 2 within 3-6 months.

Phase 2: The Performance Paradox
You're delivering excellent work. Inside, you're falling apart. "I just need a vacation.
Then I'll be fine." But the vacation doesn't help.

You're pretending everything's fine at work—smiling in meetings, hitting deadlines. Then you go home and collapse.

You're creating from survival mode—adrenaline and pressure—not inspiration.
Your body is breaking down. Headaches. Insomnia. Getting sick constantly.

The cost: Phase 2 becomes Phase 3 within 3-6 months.
And Phase 3 is heading towards a breaking point.

Phase 3: The Breaking Point
You're disconnected. You can't hide it anymore.
"I just need to make it through this week..."

But you're not making it. You're barely functioning. Panic attacks.
Crying at your desk. Brain fog so thick you can't think.
Emotionally numb. Completely cynical.

You don't care about anything anymore.

You're fantasizing about escape—quitting without a plan, getting
in an accident so you'd have to take time off, disappearing entirely.
Your creative spark is gone.

The work feels robotic, soulless. Your relationships are suffering.

The cost: Phase 3 becomes Phase 4—where you either leave the
industry entirely or stay and break permanently.

Phase 4: The Attrition Phase
You've quit. Or you're about to.

Or you've had a breakdown that forced a pause. "I can't do this anymore."

And you mean it.
This is the crossroads: leave entirely, stay disconnected, or rewire completely.

The cost: Years of your life lost to a career that consumed you. Or staying in the industry as the cynical, burnt-out creative who's just going through the motions.  

Sound familiar? 
 If you're reading this thinking, "Oh god, that's me. I'm in Phase 2. Maybe Phase 3.  
I don't know, but something's very wrong"—that's exactly why I created this course.

What The Creative Burnout Decoded Does

This 90-minute course shows you exactly:

✓ Which phase of burnout you're in—through detailed self-assessment
✓ The specific warning signs at each phase—the ones dismissed
✓ Why burnout in creative fields is different—emotional labor,
    people-pleasing, creative depletion
✓ What to do immediately based on your phase—not generic advice,
    but phase-specific interventions
✓ Why "self-care days" don't work—and what does
✓ The hidden costs at each phase—what you don't see yet
✓ How to differentiate between "busy season stress" and actual burnout
✓ Why burnout is a frequency problem, not a workload problem
✓ What deeper work looks like if you're ready to break the cycle for good 

Who This Is For This course is for you if:
✓ You're a designer, creative director, brand strategist, or creative
    professional drowning in work

✓ You're in Phase 1 or 2—you know something's wrong but don't know
    what or how bad

✓ You've taken "self-care days" that didn't help and you don't understand why

✓ You're tired of the boom-bust cycle—burning out, recovering, burning out again

✓ You want to break the cycle before it breaks you

✓ You're willing to be honest about where you actually are

✓ You're ready to take action, not just learn about burnout

You get clarity.
You'll finally know which phase you're in, what signs you've been missing,
what to do immediately, and whether you need deeper intervention.

You get action steps.
Not vague advice like "set boundaries." Specific interventions for your
specific phase that you can implement this week.

You get hope.
You'll understand that burnout isn't a life sentence. It's a pattern.
And patterns can be interrupted.

You don't need a full breakdown to take action.

You just need:
• Clarity on where you actually are
• Understanding of what's happening and why
• Action steps specific to your phase

That's exactly what The Creative Burnout Decoded gives you.  

The Truth Is You already know something's wrong.
You're tired. Your work feels flat. You're fantasizing about quitting.

The question isn't: "Am I burnt out?"
The question is: "Which phase am I in—and what do I do about it
before it gets worse?"

This course answers both questions.

In 90 minutes, you'll have:
• Complete clarity on where you are
• Understanding of what's happening and why
• Specific action steps you can take this week
• A roadmap for what comes next.

You can keep guessing.
Keep trying random strategies.
Keep hoping it gets better on its own. Or you can get clarity. Right now.

The choice is yours.
