It's all right to leave work on time and to have dinner with your family and to turn off when you go home. You deserve to have a life that you want, and it doesn't mean that you have to work yourself into the ground or try to enjoy life only when you've burnt yourself out and now your body is deteriorating because you've run yourself into the ground at work.
Have you ever felt like you're constantly running on a treadmill, trying to keep up with the demands of work and life? In this eye-opening episode of 'Beyond Theory', Breanna Mylius, clinical director at Meadows Behavioral Healthcare, joins host Dominic Lawson to unravel the hidden dangers of hustle culture. They dive into how the relentless pursuit of success, often romanticized as the American dream, can take a toll on mental health and well-being.
Breanna sheds light on the historical roots of hustle culture in America and its pervasive impact on our daily lives. Breanna doesn't just stop at theory; she shares real-world consequences of overworking, including burnout, stress, and even severe physical health issues like hypertension and insomnia. The conversation also touches on the tragic phenomenon of Karoshi, a Japanese term for death by overwork, illustrating just how serious the stakes can be.
But it's not all doom and gloom—Breanna offers practical advice on achieving a healthier work-life balance. She emphasizes the importance of self-esteem over other-esteem, urging listeners to seek internal validation rather than external approval. For anyone feeling trapped in the cycle of endless hustle, this episode is a must-listen. Breanna's insights serve as a wake-up call to prioritize mental health and well-being over perpetual productivity.
Whether you're a workaholic or just someone struggling to find balance, you'll find valuable takeaways that can help you reclaim your life from the clutches of hustle culture.
