318: 3 Myths About Productivity Hacks That Keep You Stuck in a Toxic Cycle with Israa Nasir, MHC-LP

Ever found yourself color-coding your family’s Google calendar while stress-eating a half-eaten granola bar you found in the bottom of your purse for lunch? (No judgment, we’ve all been there.) In this episode, we’re tackling that sneaky little habit we call “toxic productivity.” You know, the one that whispers, "You’re not doing enough," even when you’re crushing it like a multitasking superhero. Our guest Israa Nasir is a New York City-based psychotherapist, founder of WellGuide—a digital community for mental health awareness, and author of the new book: TOXIC PRODUCTIVITY: Reclaim Your Time and Emotional Energy in a World That Always Demands More.  We’re going to break down why being busy doesn’t always mean being productive and how trying to do it all might actually be burning us out faster than our kids can say, "What’s for dinner?" Spoiler alert: multitasking is a lie, perfectionism is overrated, and squeezing in some actual fun might just be the secret sauce to a happier life. Resources We Shared: Join our newsletter!
