Creating Cadence Podcast 93 - The Hidden Hustle Tax

Описание: In Episode 93 of Creating Cadence, Mich Bondesio explores why burnout can keep happening at work for leaders, and why it’s not a personal failure.

Building on the themes of Burning Bright and The Myth of More, this episode zooms out to examine the invisible architecture of overwork. From hustle culture and digital distraction to decision fatigue and the “infinite workday,” Mich unpacks the hidden tax modern leaders are paying — not in money, but in attention.
