Are Your Goals Building Freedom—or Just Burning You Out?
🎙️ Welcome to The Education Evolution!
You’re listening to Unscripted — where we drop the notes, skip the scripts, and have real conversations about growth, learning, and life beyond the classroom.
In this episode, hosts Hady (Mr. Jihad) and Lindsay (Ms. Black) reflect on what it really means to reset — not just for a new year, but for a new season of life.
We’re talking about goals, discipline, burnout, and freedom — and questioning whether the way we’ve been taught to “work hard” is actually setting us up for the lives we want.
In today’s conversation, we unpack:
The difference between goals that move you forward and goals that just keep you busy
Why discipline matters more than motivation — especially in your 30s
Jill Scott’s take on working hard vs. working smart across different life stages
Using health, benefits, and routines as tools for longevity — not punishment
Why birthdays can be just as powerful as New Year’s when it comes to personal resets
Letting go of hustle culture and redefining what success looks like now
This episode is for anyone feeling the tension between ambition and exhaustion — and wondering how to build a life that feels intentional, sustainable, and free.
Whether you’re setting goals, rethinking old ones, or giving yourself permission to start over (again), this conversation is a reminder that growth doesn’t have to be loud — it just has to be aligned.
