Listen "My Break-Up Letter to Hustle Culture"
Episode Synopsis
For years, I believed hustle culture when it told me exhaustion was proof of my worth. Law school guilt. Billable hour pressure. Pinterest-worthy parenting. That little voice whispering: “Don’t really unplug. Stay productive. Prove your dedication and loyalty.”But here’s the truth: I was enough all along. And so are you.In this episode, I read my official break-up letter to hustle culture and reflect on how busyness became our badge of honor — and how that badge is costing us our health, our joy, and our presence. I share what it’s like to overdo it, to carry invisible struggles, and to finally choose rest as rebellion.Because you don’t have to hustle for your worth. You already are enough. And when you believe that? You give yourself permission to stay loud enough to hear yourself, soft enough to feel it all — but most of all, to stay unmuted.Music Credit:Tuesday Vibes by Snoozy Beatshttps://soundcloud.com/snoozybeatsCreative Commons — Attribution 3.0 Unported — CC BY 3.0Free Download / Stream: https://www.audiolibrary.com.co/snoozybeats/tuesday-vibesMusic promoted by Audio Library https://youtu.be/Gd5msntuOng
