This week Skye and Amanda break down the idolization of hustle culture. Using articles, the two talk about the effects of toxic hustle culture and how it can essentially become counterproductive. Listen in as the two discuss how they have been managing societal pressures, dealing with competition, and how they are learning to be guilt-free with their leisure time.  Learn who is struggling with feeling like they must optimize all of their time and which of them feels like they have learned a good balance between work and rest.
