If this ruffles a few feathers, I’m okay with that 🤷♀️
This has been rattling around in my brain for a while…
Every time I see a post glorifying being “always available,” working 24/7, or never taking a day off, something in me cringes a little bit.
Not because I don’t believe in hard work, of course I do.
I just don’t believe we should have to sacrifice our health, our families, or ourselves to prove that we’re committed.
Maybe it’s because I’ve lived it and I know firsthand what burnout costs.
Either way, I think it’s time we stop confusing or equating hustle with excellence.
