Back to EpisodesThe Work-Worth Pattern: How to Stop Tying Your Value to Your Work
Description
Most high achievers are completely exhausted, but taking a vacation or working fewer hours never actually solves the problem. That's because burnout isn't just physical tiredness—it's what happens when your entire self-worth is tied to your daily productivity.
In this episode, I break down the "Work-Worth Pattern," why we get hooked on performance , and my own story of using stimulants and overwork to run from myself until my life completely blew up.
What you'll get from this one:
• Why conventional self-care hacks fail to fix a performance-based identity
• The hidden roots behind why you feel guilty the moment you stop working
• Three questions to ask yourself to start separating your human value from your job title
