As university students, we are uniquely situated: we sit at the bridge between late adolescence and early adulthood. In our pursuit of autonomy and self-sufficiency, many of us find ourselves overworking to the point of exhaustion in order to reach our goals. While hard work is necessary and even admirable, there’s a fine line between healthy productivity and toxic productivity, which can be defined simply as “an unhealthy desire to be productive at all times, at all costs”. It involves doing things out of compulsion as opposed to necessity. In “Tackling Toxic Productivity”, our hosts discuss the influences and effects of toxic productivity, and the ways that we can all take steps towards finding a healthy work-life balance.
