In this episode of Therapy Unplugged, we explore the concept of toxic productivity—a need to be constantly productive without balancing it with rest and leisure. We discuss how societal pressures often equate busyness with self-worth, and the challenges individuals face in maintaining a healthy approach to productivity. The episode draws insights from Brene Brown's book, "The Gifts of Imperfection," and highlights the risks of an addiction-like dopamine cycle caused by never-ending task completion. One of the key tenets we emphasize is the importance of finding harmony between work and well-being.
