Emotional labor in creative professions

Listen Later

In this episode of Nela’s Art Chat I’m sharing the process of creating a moody, drippy mixed media portrait in my recycled sketchbook while talking about an overlooked topic: emotional labor.

  • What kind of impact it has on creative workers?
  • Why do we often find personal work easier and less draining than commissioned work?
  • How can we protect ourselves from excessive emotional labor so we don't burn out?
