    AP 731: When Productivity Becomes a Problem: Signs You’re Overcommitted and How to Reclaim Your Time + Energy || with Israa Nasir
    Oct 27 2025
    I had the pleasure of speaking with therapist and author Israa Nasir about the often-hidden cost of toxic productivity. We delved into deeply relevant topics such as how an endless to-do list isn't just a badge of honor, but potentially a symptom of perfectionism that could be stifling your true happiness. Along the way, Israa shared some eye-opening insights about self-care for mothers and the importance of self-compassion, particularly how recognizing the difference between urgent and important tasks can reshape your daily habits and overall perception of self-worth. Whether you're tuning in for advice on how to feel happy or how to stop being a perfectionist, this episode is a treasure trove of practical tips and thoughts on how to stop burning out and start living a life more aligned to your values.
