When I was a kid my nana always said “you have to suffer to be beautiful!” It’s a pretty shitty thing to say to a kid - but the truth is that the idea that we have to suffer in order to have things or be successful is a narrative that we are constantly being force fed and it’s actually killing us, because there is no guarantee that more hours worked will actually translate to success. Are we actually productive, or are we just addicted to being busy?

Welcome to episode 68 of This Shit Works where I discuss how Hustle Culture is quite literally killing us, how to identify if you are living your life in a Hustle Culture and how to break free from it if you are!
