#148 What You're Getting WRONG About Productivity with Israa Nasir

Rise and grind! Time is money!! You can rest when you're dead!! For decades, societal pressures have pushed us to do more, achieve more, and be more, with the promise of feeling accomplished, fulfilled, and happy. But this relentless pursuit often comes at the cost of our mental and physical health. Are we happier? Will it ever be enough? Being productive isn’t just about time management; it's about managing your emotions. In a world obsessed with getting more done, "Toxic Productivity" reveals the hidden roots of hustle culture and dismantles the myth that doing more makes you more worthy. This week I sit down with psychotherapist and @well.guide founder Israa Nasir as she offers research-backed insights into self-worth, shame, social comparison, burnout, and perfectionism. Through therapeutic principles, personal anecdotes, and client stories, Nasir provides expert guidance to help you: - Recognize the emotional patterns driving toxic productivity habits - Cultivate a healthier perspective on achievement - Create sustainable habits for reaching goals that are authentically meaningful This episode opened by eyes to SO much and I hope you all find it valuable too!

Om Podcasten

A Millennial Mind is a podcast about perspective, because when you understand someone’s mind, you understand their world. But we all live with limited data. Our beliefs, experiences, and knowledge are just a few dots. And if you don’t collect enough dots, you can’t connect them and you can’t grow. That’s why this podcast exists: to gather those dots. Each episode, I invite experts, thought leaders, and change makers to challenge how I think, on everything from mental health, hormones, and habits to relationships, identity, and success. We bust myths, reframe narratives, and explore what it really takes to shift your mindset. Because when you change your mind, you change your thoughts.And when you change your thoughts, you change your life. So if you’re ready to think differently, welcome to the reimagined A Millennial Mind. Hit subscribe and let’s start connecting the dots together.
