About this listen
Israa Nasir is a psychotherapist, speaker, writer, and the founder of WellGuide, a digital platform dedicated to making mental health tools accessible to all. Her work has been featured in Forbes, Time, and Harvard Business Review, and her new book, Toxic Productivity, helps readers reclaim their time and emotional energy in a world that constantly asks for more.
Today, Israa shares how her own pursuit of achievement nearly cost her the things that mattered most. She opens up about growing up between cultures, how her family’s story shaped her understanding of success, and the moment she realized she needed to make a change. We also explore the concept of toxic productivity, why so many of us fall into it, and what it actually takes to break free.
My friends, if you’ve ever felt guilty for resting, struggled to say no, or questioned your worth when you're not "doing enough," this conversation is for you. You'll leave with practical tools to quiet your inner critic, make space for joy and rest, and define success on your own terms.
