In this episode of Career Clarity Unlocked, career coach Theresa White sits down with Rebecca Scott—Content Marketing Lead at Venture for Canada, artist, and multi-passionate creative—to talk about what it really feels like to be a creative professional in today's career landscape.

Rebecca shares her non-linear career journey from studying psychology to working in marketing, entrepreneurship, and nonprofit leadership. Together, they explore the Sparketype® framework to reveal her core identity as a "Maker"—someone who thrives on creating but can feel deeply drained by forced, uninspired work.

This episode dives into the real tension creatives face: balancing their need for self-expression with the demands of traditional roles, dealing with burnout when their creativity is commodified, and learning to listen to their inner voice when it's time to pivot. Rebecca also opens up about finding fulfillment outside of work through art, poetry, and crafts, reminding us that honoring our creativity is essential for well-being.

Whether you’re a creative professional feeling stuck, a multi-passionate human searching for alignment, or someone who’s wondering if it’s even possible to find purpose-aligned work that pays the bills, this conversation is for you.

You’ll learn:

• How to navigate creative burnout in traditional jobs
• The difference between energizing vs. draining creativity
• How Sparketype can clarify your creative work style
• Why hobbies matter for mental health and creative freedom
• How to know when it’s time to pivot toward more aligned work

Ever feel like your job is draining the life out of you, but you can’t explain why?

In this powerful episode, I’m joined by Brian Trzaskos, co-creator of the trauma-sensitive, sensation-based motivation method. We talk about how your body (yep, your actual nervous system) might be holding the truth your brain’s been ignoring, especially when it comes to burnout, people-pleasing, and staying stuck in misaligned work.

Brian shares his own career journey from burnout and breakdown to transformation, and we explore how physical symptoms can be your body’s early warning signs that something’s off, before your conscious mind catches up.

We also dig into:

• What your nervous system has to do with motivation and burnout
• How subconscious beliefs shape your behavior (and sabotage your goals)
• The 9 motivational drivers and how to find yours
• Why trying harder isn’t always the answer
• What actually works when you're stuck, exhausted, or disconnected at work
