S3 | E180: The Lie Hustle Culture Tells Ambitious Women (And What God Says Instead)
If rest feels risky and stillness makes you squirm, you’re not broken—you’re believing a lie. ️
In this deep dive episode of The Poised Powerhouse Podcast, Dr. Seida unpacks how hustle culture tangled our worth with our work, why slowing down feels dangerous for high-achieving women, and how to start reclaiming peace without guilt.
This isn’t about choosing laziness. It’s about choosing legacy.
Because you were never created to prove your worth—you were created to live it.

✅ Why hustle culture equates busyness with value ✅ How trauma makes stillness feel unsafe (and how to heal it) ✅ Signs you're performing instead of living ✅ The real reason slowing down feels like losing control ✅ Faith-forward truth about your worth—whether you “produce” or not ✅ A mini guided reset you can use anytime anxiety rises during rest
