Why I Took a Break From the Podcast And What I Learned About Hustle Culture
Description
“I used to think consistency was the holy grail — that if I just kept going, I'd earn my way into alignment. But what I've come to unlearn is this: when rhythm breaks, it's not always a failure. Sometimes it's divine intervention.”
In this episode of The Unlearning Curve, I’m sharing the truth behind my unexpected podcast hiatus — not just a pause, but a powerful realignment. This is the conversation for every woman who’s been overdelivering, pushing through, and performing under pressure… all while quietly unraveling inside.
Together, we’ll explore:
-
Why hustle culture is so seductive (and so destructive)
-
What consistency really means in your second season of life
-
The link between nervous system burnout and creative shutdown
-
How universal timing, external redirection, and internal truth forced me to recalibrate
-
What sovereignty sounds like when it returns to the mic
💬 “I didn’t plan this break — I was called into it. By my body, by life, by something bigger than my own will.”
Whether you’re navigating burnout, redefining success, or craving a rhythm that finally feels like yours, this episode is a permission slip to pause — and rebuild from truth, not trauma.
🎧 Takeaway: You’ll leave with language, resonance, and tools to unlearn performance culture, reclaim your rhythm, and rise on your own timing.
