Episode Description

In this episode of Standing In Your Truth, we’re unpacking toxic work culture and the quiet ways hustle culture keeps us stuck in survival mode.

From being rewarded for overworking to navigating difficult colleagues and unclear boundaries, many of us learn to equate burnout with success. The praise, the promotions, the productivity — they can keep us trapped in a loop that slowly disconnects us from ourselves.

We talk about:

• The hidden cost of hustle culture

• How toxic dynamics show up on teams

• Why high performers are often the most vulnerable to burnout

• The nervous system impact of chronic overdrive

• Practical ways to protect your energy without sacrificing your ambition

If you’ve ever felt like you’re succeeding on paper but exhausted underneath — this conversation is for you.

Standing in your truth sometimes means redefining what success looks like and choosing sustainability over self-abandonment.
