Do you feel guilty for calling in sick to work? Well, you might be struggling with a Workaholic Mindset which is EXACTLY what today's episode is all about. We'll also be touching a bit on Karō-shi, a Japanese Phenomenon describing deaths connected to overworking and occupational stress. Hustle Culture is a huge part of how people believe they'll achieve their goals, but is it good for us? And can it make us LESS active in other facets of our lives? Tune in to find out!
