When Hustle Culture Blocks Creativity: Finding the Courage to Revolt


Listen Later

We’ve been told to hustle harder, grind more, and measure our worth by productivity. But here’s the truth: hustling isn’t resistance... it’s control. Your creativity is the real act of revolt.

In this episode, I explore why creativity is inseparable from justice, freedom, and survival. Drawing on the wisdom of Nawal El Saadawi, we’ll look at how systems of fear, trauma, and hustle culture silence imagination, and how reclaiming creativity becomes a form of resistance.

If you’ve ever felt drained by hustle culture, pressured to perform, or cut off from your creative birthright, this episode is your reminder: creativity is not optional. It’s survival. It’s revolt.
