#32 Life as an Artist: Burnout, Rejection, and the Courage to Keep Going
Welcome back to Empowering the Artist Within! I'm your host Liz Ross and after a few weeks away, I’m catching you up on what’s been happening behind the scenes. In this week’s episode I’m sharing an honest catch-up on life, art, and creative courage. From taking time off for rest to showing up live on YouTube for the first time! We’ll talk about embracing imperfection, what consistency really means, and why sharing the messy moments matters just as much as celebrating the wins.
In this episode, I talk about:
🌿 Why I was forced to rest and take a break from the Podcast
🎨 My recent experiences with open calls and what happens when things don’t go the way you hope
💻 Going live on YouTube for the first time (and how I found the courage to hit “Go Live”)
💫 Why consistency doesn’t always mean perfection — and what it can look like for artists like us
🖌️ My latest art explorations and what’s inspiring me creatively right now
This is a gentle, honest catch-up episode about the highs and lows of being a creative and how sharing the “messy middle” can be just as uplifting as sharing our wins.
