Redefining Productivity, Burnout & the Cost of Hustle Culture
The hustle culture lie has a price tag — and women of color pay it most expensively. Burnout, anxiety, chronic fatigue, and the relentless pressure to produce are not signs of success. They are signs of a system that profits from your exhaustion. This workshop reclaims rest as a radical, strategic, and financially intelligent act. You will leave with a new relationship to productivity, a sustainable pace that actually produces more, and permission to stop grinding yourself into the ground.
