Description

In this episode of the Grad School Femtoring Podcast, I explore how to redefine productivity to overcome burnout, especially for first-gen, BIPOC, and neurodivergent individuals. I share insights on the root causes of burnout and emphasize the importance of aligning your work with core values, managing your energy, practicing self-compassion, and engaging in community care. I also provide actionable strategies to help you work more sustainably. Tune in if you resonate with doing work that honors your humanity, resists systemic barriers, and achieves your goals without compromising your wellbeing.
