Master the rhythm, not the race. In today’s episode, we pull back the curtain on the dark side of hustle, discipline, and showing up no matter what. From shame-driven routines to the hidden cost of overperformance, we’re breaking down what real sustainability looks like when your capacity changes day to day. It’s raw, honest, and probably not the “motivation” talk you’re used to hearing. This isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing what matters. Hit play and learn how to build consistency that fuels you instead of breaks you.
