Are you caught up in the hustle, believing your worth is defined by productivity? Society celebrates constant busyness, promising that the more you accomplish, the more meaningful your life will be. But that’s not true. In fact, it often has the opposite effect—diminishing your sense of self-worth and hindering personal growth.

 

Join Whitney as she talks with guest Israa Nasir about how the lure of constant hustle affects our sense of worth.

 

In their conversation, Israa explores the shift from a healthy work ethic to toxic productivity, shaped by societal pressures and early childhood experiences. She also offers practical advice on recognizing and overcoming toxic productivity, highlighting the importance of joy and balance.
