In today’s burnout culture, simply getting by has become the norm. Designers give endlessly to clients, say yes all too often, and race to meet arbitrary deadlines—frequently at the expense of their own well-being. But constantly putting yourself last isn’t a strategy for success; it’s a fast track to exhaustion.
In this Launch class, holistic interior designer Gala Magriñá introduces a mindset-driven framework for building a thriving, values-aligned design practice minus the burnout—imagine that! Drawing on more than two decades of experience as a business owner, she reframes professional success as something that starts internally, with clear boundaries, self-trust and intentional pacing, before showing up in your projects, client relationships and revenue.
Blending personal insight with practical guidance, Magriñá walks attendees through her empowering philosophy—one that balances discipline with surrender, ambition with ease, and structure with authenticity. Designers will be encouraged to challenge hustle culture, redefine what it means to be “bad”—in the best sense of the word—in business, and discover how slowing down can actually lead to stronger creative work, healthier client dynamics, and a more sustainable practice.
In this workshop, attendees will learn:
- How to reframe business growth through boundaries, focus and self-trust rather than overextension
- Why slowing down can be a strategic tool for creativity, clarity and better design outcomes
- How aligning authenticity, values and client compatibility strengthens both brand identity and workflow
- The role of discipline, rituals and systems in creating sustainable success in design businesses
After this workshop, attendees will have:
- A clear framework for identifying where burnout stems from, including a lack of boundaries and systems
- Five mindset shifts that support well-being and business performance
- Practical strategies for saying “no,” protecting creative energy, and embracing ease over perfectionism
- An action plan to level up—with one concrete change to implement right away
