This week, we have our first “listener request” for the topic! In a recent Refinery29 article, “Feel The Fear and Do It Anyway Is Just Another Way Of Making Us Work Harder,” journalist Sarah Macken questions whether social media posts that encourage you to push through the fear just enable burnout and crappy work environments. We discuss the difference between toxic and uncomfortable workplaces, why we low-key love motivational quotes, and how hustle culture is going through an (overdue) upgrade. ‘Fall girl’ Melissa is also booking fights and falling in love with summer, while ‘summer girl’ Renée is listening to her body so she doesn’t mistake fear for a gut feeling.
