Reframing Productivity as a Living System w— Amelia Hruby

“A lot of us have embodied an industrial model for productivity that’s solely focused on maximizing output, profits, and extraction. But what if we did it in a more regenerative way? What if we did it in a way where we cared about the whole system, instead of trying to extract as much from ourselves and the things around us as possible?”

Reframing productivity is a very January thing to do, yes? How can we release ourselves from the outer forces, inner voices, and productivity gurus driving us toward more-more-more? And when we do choose another path, how do we set up our work so that we actually bring our dreams to life — without getting lost in ambiguity, confusion or overwhelm?

I’m joined by Amelia Hruby, my friend, podcast producer + co-teacher of our upcoming course Living Systems. Together we discuss all things productivity through a feminist, ecological lens; and we share the systems + frameworks that allow us to live more in alignment with our internal rhythms, energetic capacities + ever-changing seasons.

This episode is for anyone who wants to do life, work + business your way, and needs support figuring out what your way really is.🌱
