You didn’t start a business to work 80+ hours a week, but somehow that’s where so many end up.
This week, Jason Wojo and Polish Peter discuss three of the most pervasive lies that keep entrepreneurs trapped in burnout, disconnection, and frustration. Drawing from thousands of people they’ve spoken to at previous Get-A-Life Getaways, they challenge the hustle culture and invite listeners to rethink it and talk you through how to get on the path where your business supports your life, not the other way around.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- Why the mantra “grind now, live later” is a trap, and what to do instead
- The hidden emotional roots of overworking, from fear to identity
- How “busyness” can mask deeper personal avoidance
- The myth of more money equaling more success (and what success really means)
- The key mindset shift that leads to real freedom in business and life
- How to start designing a life-first Vision that your business supports
If you’ve ever felt stuck between striving and living, this episode is a great starting point for a better way!
