150. The Cost of Hustle — What I Gave Up to Get My Life Back
•
Shelby Hansen
Do you ever feel like no matter how much you do, it’s never enough? Like you're running on empty but still pushing through?
In this powerful episode, I share my story of living under the weight of hustle culture: the constant pressure to achieve, perform, support everyone else, and never complain. I talk about what that looked like as a young mom, a military spouse, and a woman trying to do everything right — until my body forced me to stop.
This isn’t just a story about burnout. It’s a story about waking up.
If you’ve been exhausted, overwhelmed, or secretly wondering if this is just what life has to be — this episode is for you.
What You’ll Hear:
- The invisible rules women live by in hustle culture
- My story of over-functioning, burnout, and medical crisis
- Why rest felt dangerous and how I learned to embrace it
- What I gave up to get my life back — and what I’ve gained in return
- A new way of living that honors your body, energy, and peace
