What if productivity isn’t about doing more — but doing what matters?

In this episode, we chat with Productivity Consultant Rachel King, who’s flipping the script on hustle culture. She shares more on how to move beyond the to-do list and into a more meaningful, sustainable, human-centred way of working, where your value isn’t tied into your outputs.

We discuss how to align your time, energy, and values, so productivity becomes less about burnout and more about balance, focus, and meaningful momentum.

Whether you’re stuck in output mode or craving a new rhythm, this is your permission slip to slow down and move forward. Tune in for grounded insight, practical strategies, and a much-needed reframe.

Caught up in content churn, offer stacking, and algorithm-pleasing? You’re not alone, but it might be costing you more than you think.

What if slowing down could actually move you forward? What if your best marketing didn’t come from hustle, but from clarity, creativity, and giving your ideas time to ripen?

In this episode, we explore the natural rhythms of business and what it looks like to work with your creative energy instead of against it. We talk about rest as strategy, marketing without burnout, and the guilt that can come from slowing down — plus why reflection isn’t indulgent, it’s essential.

Whether you're in a season of growth, recalibration, or quiet reinvention, this one’s for you. And if you simply need permission to pause, here it is.
