In this episode, I reflect on my own experiences with toxic productivity, starting from my time watching my mother working herself to (eventually) death from cancer, then bringing New York City's hustle culture to my current life in Hawaii.

Drawing from my reading of "Women Who Work Too Much" by Tamu Thomas, we'll examine the roots of toxic productivity and its impact on our nervous systems and overall well-being.

This episode aims to inspire you to question societal pressures and find ways to integrate rest, play, and spirituality into your daily life.

Key Talking Points

• Environmental and Societal Impact: How forces like patriarchy, capitalism, and white supremacy influence our internalized beliefs about productivity.

• Origins of Toxic Productivity: How societal forces like capitalism, patriarchy, and white supremacy contribute to overwork.

• Practical Steps to Healing: How to start peeling away the layers of conditioning and finding a healthier work-life balance.

Join me as we unpack the layers of toxic productivity and explore ways to create a life filled with peace, joy, and meaningful connections. Remember, it's not just about what you do, but how you do it.
