The Wholistic Productivity Podcast #8 Gratitude and Self-care: The Secret Weapons of Wholistic Productivity
Productivity isn’t just about getting more done—it’s about doing it in a healthy, sustainable way. In this episode of the Wholistic Productivity Podcast, Chris LeBrun shares two “secret weapons” that may not sound like productivity tips at first, but they can transform your mindset and protect you from burnout:
- Self-Care: Why it’s not selfish to set aside time for rest, hobbies, relationships, and health—and how saying no can be one of the most powerful acts of self-care.
- Gratitude: How cultivating gratitude improves resilience, reduces stress, and strengthens relationships. Plus, why writing down what you’re thankful for (and sharing it with others) can make you more productive and happier.
If you’ve ever felt trapped by the “rise and grind” mentality, this episode offers a refreshing reset. Discover how simple acts of self-care and gratitude can restore your energy, improve your focus, and bring more balance to your professional, personal, and purpose-driven goals.
