Episode 30
Teresa Ferreira on Burnout, Intuition & Building Confidence
I’m joined by creative director and brand strategist Teresa Ferreira for a thoughtful conversation about burnout, intuition, confidence and what it really means to build a life that feels aligned. Together, we discuss leaving the corporate world, building a purpose-led creative business, recognising the early signs of burnout and learning to trust your intuition, even when it doesn’t always make logical sense.
What We Explore In This Episode
Teresa reflects on her transition from corporate life into entrepreneurship, the lessons she's learned about wellbeing, and why confidence no longer comes from external achievements but from feeling grounded in who she is. Together, we explore creativity, self-expression, alignment and the importance of recognising when something no longer feels right. We also discuss style, dressing for yourself rather than other people, why personal presentation can become an act of self-care, and how clothing often reflects our internal emotional state.
