Episode Overview

We praise hustle. We glorify busy. But at what cost?

In this episode of Reset & Reclaim, we’re unpacking the hidden toll of hustle culture—especially on women, caregivers, and high achievers who’ve been taught that rest equals laziness. If you’ve ever felt guilty taking a break or afraid that slowing down means falling behind, this one’s for you.

We explore:

• The emotional and physiological impact of “always grinding”

• Why burnout isn’t just exhaustion—it’s disconnection from your true self

• How inherited beliefs, family modeling, and identity shape your relationship to productivity

• What nervous system regulation and self-trust have to do with rest and success

Plus, I’ll share personal stories and offer one powerful mindset reframe that can shift your relationship with productivity for good.

What You’ll Learn:

• Why the “badge of busy” might be keeping you stuck

• The emotional cost of chronic hustle—on your body, brain, and relationships

• How to begin reclaiming rest, joy, and a more sustainable rhythm
