Toxic Productivity and Its Impact on Our Health Change your Relationship with Food

    • Mental Health

Welcome to the 'Change Your Relationship with Food' podcast. Hosted by Kyla Holley, this episode tackles a contemporary concern known as 'toxic productivity'. We discuss the severe impact on our physical, mental, and nutritional well-being, and how it has creeped into all aspects of our lives under the influence of 'hustle culture'. We often let this lifestyle compromise our priorities, promoting an unhealthy relationship with food and self-care.
We help you identify signs of toxic productivity, like prolonged working hours, feelings of guilt around inactivity, unrealistic expectations and devaluing self-care. We then explore the dire consequences like anxiety, depression and burnout, leading to an unending cycle of tremendous pressure and inaction.
But it's not all dark and gloomy! We provide ideas on how to escape the clutches of toxic productivity!
You will discover actionable strategies to curb toxic productivity, achieve a practical work-life equilibrium and set realistic goals. We delve into setting SMART goals that allow you to be realistic about your capabilities and prioritise balance over burnout. We discuss the value of integrating breaks into your routine, fostering comfort with idle time.
We address common negative feelings like fears of failure, imposter syndrome, guilt around accomplishment, harmful comparisons, and stress. Moreover, you will learn the essential step of breaking free from technology dependence and reaping the benefits of occasional digital detox.
This episode calls you to work smarter rather than harder, to spot when you're succumbing to unnecessary pressure and to foster healthier relationships with productivity. Above all, we emphasize that mental and physical health should always take precedence.
A companionship journal and workbook can also be found on Amazon. Follow us and stay tuned for more enlightening episodes on leading a balanced, rewarding life.
