Since turning eighteen, I have been working nonstop simply to survive. Well, I'm tired. In this episode, from my personal point of view, I detail the negative aspects of productivity culture, being financially spread thin while working two jobs to survive the current state of the economy, and other financial struggles that having a joint income with a spouse could solve. Prioritizing my mental wellbeing and protecting the pieces of peace I've been finding are important, so I've been hustling and grinding to get out of survival mode.
