216: Hustle Without Harm

Are you lazy if you don’t hustle? Are you going to burn out more quickly or easily if you do try to hustle? Ask any seasoned professional what they think of their younger counterparts and you’ll almost certainly hear about how they don’t work as hard or put in as much effort as people used to. Do a Google search for the word “hustle” and you’ll see item after item talking about how hustle culture is toxic. So, what should we strive for in the workplace? Hustling and working toward the rewards that come with it or taking a more laid-back approach and going a more sustainable path? In this episode, we’re diving into this nuanced topic and doing our best to figure out a way to hustle without harm. Listen in and join the discussion on LinkedIn (Eric | Nayla). Inside Job is brought to you by Nayla Bahri and Eric Johnson.

Om Podcasten

We’re Nayla Bahri and Eric Johnson, and we love to talk about the intersection of life and work. Why? Most of us will spend more hours of our life working than doing anything else. The relationship we have with work, and the way we make meaning of our time and experience there, serves as a great platform to explore how we show up to the rest of our lives: relationships, family and parenting, our health, our hobbies and interests, and our general attitude towards the human experience. With insights and observations pulled from our leadership and career coaching, teaching and consulting work, as well as the most relevant research across fields, we’ll talk about the ideas that really impact how you experience work – and your life – and actionable strategies to make work work for you, from the inside out.
