In a world that praises endless achievement and self-sacrifice, Amina AlTai has emerged as a voice of profound clarity, showing us that ambition can be regenerative instead of extractive, rooted in community rather than supremacy culture.

Her work calls us to remember that our nervous systems, relationships, and self-worth are often tangled in how we pursue success. She teaches us to recognize the traps of toxic ambition as well as how to build something more sustainable, dignified, and truly life-giving.

Today we welcome Amina AlTai back to the podcast to discuss her new book The Ambition Trap. Tune in her to hear us discuss:

• How supremacy culture upholds hustle culture
• Global High Intensity Activation and syndromal physiology
• The power of speaking slowly
• Ways to build momentum and choose urgency intentionally
• Healthy ambition vs Painful ambition
• Learning to speak out with layers of support
• Codependency, boundaries, and reclaiming agency
