Summary

Before I start this episode on the topic of why you should not hustle I have to say thank you. Thank you to all of you who listen to this podcast, comment, share your stories or leave reviews! I woke up this morning and saw on iTunes that The Shameless Mom Academy is ranking in 3 categories for new and noteworthy! So thank you so much for your feedback! Why you shouldn’t you hustle? I have five reasons why you shouldn’t! The hustle can have such an effect on your body not just physically but mentally as well. Your body needs rest and a chance to recharge so you don’t lose your mojo or passion.  Today we learn: Long term is not so pretty—for me personally I’m not going to lie some of it has to do with my age You don’t want to burn out and lose passion—At 25 I burned out to the point that I wanted to get my tubes tied! I went back to school for another field that didn’t work with kids—Don’t get to the point you burn out You will lose your mojo—pace yourself Not sustainable—my business has to be sustainable between 9 to 5, anything before or after those hours I’m not responsible for It’s not fair to your loved ones and YOURSELF—If you’re busy hustling when do you have time for anything else? The impact it has on your body…literally—don’t push yourself so hard it could affect your health No space left for creativity—you need to rest and recharge If you want something bad enough, you will make it happen— try to relax on deadlines to make sure this is what you want to do You will make it work if you have to—don’t make it seem sacrificial  You can’t quit right? WRONG! —When you quit something you are opening up the door for something new Links Mentioned: www.shamelessmomacademy.com/review  Yes Please by Amy Poehler Year of Yes: How to Dance It out, Stand in the Sun and be Your Own Person by Shonda Rhimes  Learn more about your ad choices.

0:50.1

episode, I have to warn you. I've been waiting and waiting to start recording today because I

have these little blocks when I can record and I have to use them. Like my time is limited.

0:59.9

So today I know that our cleaners are supposed to show up at any time. So I've been waiting thinking

my dog's going to go crazy and it's going to sound like there's an earthquake at my house. And you'll
