Hello and welcome to #DEMentalHealthMondays!
If you’re new here, #DEMentalHealthMondays is a blogging segment based on highlighting mental health and resources to help towards having better mental health overall. This blogging segment is included with our very own non-profit The DE Foundation.

Many go through this not as a new entrepreneur but as a seasoned entrepreneur over time most of the time.

  1. Also, burnout does not just go away, it comes back around in cycles. It is your mind’s way of saying “I need a break to refresh and regenerate”. Artists must learn to recognize burnout in themselves, and step back to get a fresh perspective.
