Ever felt drained by your own passion for writing? You're not alone! In this episode, we're joined by the talented Sarina Langer, an epic fantasy and dark urban paranormal writer from the South of England. Together, we dive into a topic that resonates with many writers: burnout and self-care. Sarina shares her own journey with burnout, recounting the moment when she realized she had hit a breaking point. We discuss the various ways burnout can manifest, such as exhaustion, stress, and the loss of creative focus. In a world constantly plugged in, Sarina's minimal social media presence isn't just refreshing—it's a testament to the importance of boundaries. She emphasizes: Taking care of yourself isn't selfish—it's essential for every writer. Feeling the writer's fatigue? Sarina's story might be just what you need. Tune in! Journal Prompt: Reflect on your work habits. Are signs of burnout creeping in? How do you value self-care in your routine? What steps can you take to incorporate more breaks and relaxation into your schedule? Never forget that you are worthy!
