Burnout doesn’t always mean quitting — sometimes it means outgrowing what once worked.

In this episode of Cozy with Calinnah (CWC), Calinnah sits down with artist and former beauty creator Sarah Novio to talk about taking a full year off to heal and grieve, and why she warned her audience she wouldn’t come back the same.

They unpack creative burnout, identity shifts, disappointing expectations, and the emotional reality of evolving your work when people are attached to who you used to be. This conversation is for creatives navigating change, healing, and the courage it takes to choose growth over familiarity.
