Rise And Grind?
'Rise and Grind' reveres working for work's sake, and it's immensely popular.
But grind culture is capitalism's fuel; worse, it diminishes you and me to cogs in the capitalist wheel.
Today we're discussing hustle culture: What it is, who benefits from the collective all-in, and how we can slowly unsubscribe from a life of overwork.
Here's a preview:
[5:00] Why do the (Western) masses follow grind culture's principles despite its best interest?
[8:30] Who - or what - benefits from overwork? (Hint: It's not you and me.)
[14:30] Rise and Shine over Rise and Grind: Here's how
[22:30] How to practice letting of obligations go IRL, plus: what to do with your newfound free time
Resources mentioned:
- Why Are Young People Pretending to Love Work? (via NY Times)
- The 'Rise and Grind' of Hustle Culture (via Psychology Today)
- Tricia Hersey's interview on We Can Do Hard Things
- Episode #308: Prioritizing Your Priorities
