Prioritize the Pause: Redefining Success for Gen X

Description

Hey humans! On this episode of the HX podcast, I wanted to talk to my fellow Gen Xers about something that was programmed into us back in our twenties: the idea that our worth is tied to our productivity.  I see it causing problems in business and in people's lives.  I know this from my own career in startups, where that hustle culture was rewarded and it hard-coded into me the belief that being exhausted meant I was doing a good job.  But I now know that's just not the truth, and it's time we challenge that thinking. 

So, I'm asking you to focus on a few things this week.  I want you to ask yourself what would change if you valued rest as much as work, and know that you can seek support if this is a struggle.  Remember, you are valuable because of who you are, not because of what you produce. 

Your value is intrinsically amazing.
