Hustle Culture Get With The Program

    • Comedy

We live in a world where people are thirsty to make that bread at the expense of losing everyone and everything around them. The lengths we go to be considered the slightest bit "successful" would have been considered unbelievable decades ago. It's a blessing and a curse for us millennials to grow up in this world of hustle culture. From a young age, my parents had embedded in me that working my ass off was a non-negotiable. I found and continue to experience immeasurable fulfillment when excelling in my career and it's been something that's stuck with me since day one. Literally though, when I was in my early teens, I was paid illegally to scoop ice cream, sweep floors and clean toilets and at that time I was thrilled at the fact that I was working- no task was too small but everything I did had to be excellent, some would say perfect... However, at that stage in my life there was no additional pressure to be posting my every "win" at work or brag about the fact that I was always the first one to arrive and the last one to leave. 

In an age where 12 to 18 hour days are praised via social media engagement, there has to be some sort of prioritizing that takes place for your own sanity (pre-breakdown). Listen now as I explore this idea of #HustleCulture and the importance of sometimes doing what's best for you and letting tf go of all the rest. 

SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY: if you are thriving in your relationship AND your biz hit me up rn because I don't think it's humanly possible in 2020. #SomethingsGottaGive
