About this episode

Ever feel like being busy has taken over your life?

 

In today’s episode, we’re diving deep into the pitfalls of modern-day busyness and uncovering the secrets to finding true balance in life. Natalie sits down with author and leadership expert Jackie Insinger to discuss the elusive concept of "toxic productivity" and how it impacts our well-being.

Jackie shares eye-opening insights from the Harvard Business Review and her personal journey, helping you understand why constantly being busy might actually be detrimental. You’ll learn actionable tips on how to pause, reflect, and prioritize tasks that bring joy and meaning into your daily routine.

In this episode, Jackie explains:

 

  • Why our self-worth often gets tied to productivity and how to break free from this mindset.

 

  • Practical methods for setting realistic goals that promote mental and physical well-being.

 

  • How to perform a calendar audit to focus on high-impact activities and delegate lesser tasks.

 

  • Strategies for balancing leadership roles at work and home without burning out.

 

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by your to-do list or wondered how to make your busyness more meaningful, this episode offers a refreshing perspective and practical tools to transform your life.
