Sheila Heard is the founder of Mediavandals, a creative agency focused on helping established business owners create a more sustainable & scalable company. The goal is to generate recurring revenue with minimal input from the business owner, so they can enjoy more freedom.
She got her start providing creative services to the music industry, and by 2018, she came close to packing it all in and walking away. At times, the music industry can be more than demanding.
She shares what her experience with burnout was like.
She discusses the practices she has put into place to avoid burnout in the future such as her morning routine and how she disconnects from her electronics.
Another boundary she has put into place is with clients. They are made aware of how and when they have contact with her. She has strict hours and takes weekends off to rejuvenate. She has also hired a virtual assistant to help with her work load so that she can enjoy a balanced lifestyle.
One of the tips she shares with us is - talk to someone! If you are struggling with burnout or mental health issues - have that conversation with someone supportive. Everyone experiences stress and possibly burnout but it is very difficult to do this journey alone.
Thank you Sheila for sharing your story!
