239. How Productivity Culture Burns You Out: An Interview with Tina Koch and Rachèle Summers

It would be nice to think we can leave capitalism at the office when we go home for the day. But the truth is, its reach goes far beyond just the way we make, sell, and buy stuff. It can affect the ways we place value on the actual human beings who do the work, which in turn can lead to burnout, hustle culture, and even ableism. In this episode I’m joined by two of my Advanced Certification in Feminist Coaching Students, Tina Koch and Rachèle Summers, as we discuss the tricky triad of internalized ableism, productivity culture, and capitalism.Listen in to learn how you can begin changing productivity-related tendencies by examining the ‘shoulds’ in your life, how the first step in changing your internalized ableism is to approach your thoughts around it with compassion, and how you can begin pushing back on hustle culture and build emotional resilience by learning to sit with cognitive dissonance. Get full show notes and more information here: https://unfuckyourbrain.com/239Mentioned in this episode:🎉 My Birthday Flash Sale Is Coming — Get On the List!Every year on my birthday, I give YOU a present — a flash sale on your first month inside The Feminist Self-Help Society, my flagship coaching membership.
