Episode 4.07: Bad Bitches Beat Burnout, with Niki Aggarwal
Kahaani's Misrepresented founder and podcast host Niki Aggarwal joins Anu and Tanushree at The Desi Condition for a thoughtful conversation on burnout. More specifically, we approach the topic of burnout as a result of the inability to separate identity and career, as it goes for many, and thus learning to take "acountability" for it. We discuss how to distinguish when you need a break versus when you should actually quit. The conversation turns to why some mainstream self-care is actually just capitalism at work, and share personal self-care tactics that actually work. In addition, we discuss the necessity of mitigating guilt (regarding enjoyment, or time spent not working) as a self-care tactic as well as the power of giving yourself choice. We ponder the question of what makes us feel productive, and how can we make self-care part of that feeling of productivity?
