Is Hustle Culture Destroying Your Health?

If you’re constantly pushing, grinding, and sacrificing yourself in the name of success, this episode is your wake-up call. What if the real key to thriving isn’t in working harder, but in taking better care of yourself?

Join me and my good friend Chad Potts—an ordained minister, double board-certified clinical pharmacist, and expert in faith, family, and health—as we dismantle the toxic hustle culture and reveal the three pillars of self-mastery: self-care, stress care, and soul care.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • Why ignoring self-care is the fastest way to burnout.
  • How stress affects your body, mind, and performance—and what to do about it.
  • The truth about caffeine, sleep deprivation, and hidden stressors.
  • How to create routines that fuel your energy, mental clarity, and longevity.
  • Why soul care is the missing piece most entrepreneurs ignore.

Key Takeaways:
✔️Self-care isn’t a luxury, it’s a necessity—your body will force you to rest if you don’t choose to.
✔️Stress isn’t the enemy; your relationship to stress determines your success.
✔️Caffeine, lack of sleep, and constant hustle put you in a chronic stress state that ruins your decision-making.
✔️You can’t scale your business if you don’t scale yourself first.
✔️Soul care is the foundation—without it, nothing else will bring you lasting fulfillment.
