The Burnout Nobody Talks About

356 - Most photographers know the burnout that comes with a packed fall calendar. But there’s a sneakier kind that hits when you’re putting in tons of effort and nothing seems to be working. My friend Heather Lahtinen is back to unpack both types of photographer burnout and the mindset shift that helps you get unstuck.

What to Listen For

• The sneaky burnout that has nothing to do with busyness
• Why constant effort with no results feels so hopeless
• What Facebook ads and the weather have in common
• Why your workload isn’t the real cause of burnout
• The three words that make marketing feel heavy
• What to ask instead of “I need a client”
• What 23 years taught Heather about money panic
• One simple phrase that calms the burnout spiral
• Why I hit pause on the podcast for six weeks
• Why breaking a streak makes restarting so hard

If you haven’t hit burnout yet, you will at some point. This episode gives you a better way to talk yourself through it, plus a simple phrase to lean on when things feel heavy. Listen now and keep Heather’s Burnout Reset in your back pocket.
