Description

In this episode, we take a much-needed pause to challenge a powerful but often unspoken belief: that our productivity defines our worth. If you’ve ever felt guilty for resting, equated your to-do list with your identity, or struggled to separate your work from who you are, then this conversation is for you.

Noe and Ella get real about their struggles and how overworking has affected their mental health. Hustle culture can sneak into everyday life, and their honest reflection is a reminder that stepping back isn't a sign of weakness, but a necessary act to take in order to find your own pace.

P.S. the guests chat in both Tagalog (Filipino) and English for the entire episode.
