Hustle Vibe Flow Podcast Ke Parker-Bradford and Antonia McClammy

This episode dives deep with Sara McElroy, a self-proclaimed ex-hustle devotee, to uncover why we cling to toxic jobs and the impact of knowing it's time to quit. We'll discuss practical strategies for preparing for your departure, so you can confidently step away from misery and towards a future aligned with your values.
The pandemic has pushed women worldwide to their breaking points, forcing them to re-evaluate their priorities and well-being. While many are embracing the "new normal," a nagging feeling persists: it's time for a change. But how do we transition from the ingrained hustle culture to a path of brave exploration?
Sara McElroy Bio: Sara McElroy is a former marketing officer and the Wall Street Journal’s poster girl for pandemic career burnout, and a two-time member of the Great Resignation: class of 2021 and 2022. Following a stress-induced shingles diagnosis in early 2021, Sara decided to hit the reset button on her life; she quit her hard-won CMO job and trekked to Peru's Sacred Valley to reset her frayed nervous system. When she returned, she relocated from the buzzy metropolis of Atlanta to the beach in South Florida for a new job and a fresh start. But she once again encountered deeply ingrained cultural issues in her new role, and ultimately, she walked away again. Finding herself in the company of millions of other women who also set unfulfilling jobs ablaze during the Great Resignation, she returned to her journalism roots and began to explore the stories, breaking points, and defining moments that led women to seek greater opportunity mid-pandemic. These conversations became the genesis of Raze to Rise – an organization created to amplify women’s voices from the Great Resignation and inspire others to blaze new trails in their own careers. A New Chapter Begins Coming February 2024.

Hustle culture in its toxic nature means constant work. It means striving and devoting as much of your day as possible, to working — hustling. Pushing to your limit.  There are no time outs. There are no breaks. You are constantly on the go until you BREAK. If you are on the edge of breaking or feel it's very possible, this episode is for you. We dedicate this episode to anyone who needs a reminder that hustle culture is toxic, and a set-up for failure.

In this episode, Ke and Tonie welcome you back to the Hustle Vibe Flow Podcast as we discuss the concept of “ALPHA Women”. Who is an alpha? What characteristic do they possess and why are they not always leaders.  This is a discussion of mind over matter and we examine all things powerful.  Are you intimidated by alpha women? Or are you confident, ambitious, and unafraid to tell people, you are a passive woman. "I ain't no wonder woman"
