EP 225 Busy Doesn’t Mean Better
ENTREPRENEUR PARENTS; Pretty and Punk Podcast
Hosted by Dan Caldwell and Ildiko Ferenczi
In this episode of The Entrepreneur Parents: Pretty and Punk Podcast, Dan Caldwell and Ildiko Ferenczi challenge one of the most dangerous lies in modern entrepreneurship: that being busy means you’re winning.
They peel back the layers of hustle culture to reveal how constant activity often hides a lack of clarity, alignment, and peace. If you’ve ever felt guilty for slowing down or pressured to always be doing more, this episode is a wake-up call to redefine what real success looks like, especially as a parent, a spouse, and a leader.
Dan and Ildiko dive into how chronic busyness can become a distraction from your true purpose and a barrier to deep connection with the people who matter most. From missed family dinners to emotional burnout, they explore the hidden cost of always being “on” and how it impacts your marriage, your kids, and your health. Drawing from both personal stories and powerful research, they make the case that productivity without presence isn’t success, it’s survival on autopilot.
This episode will inspire you to rethink your schedule, guard your time, and model a more balanced life for your children.
Because in the end, your kids won’t remember how many emails you sent or how many deals you closed. They’ll remember how present you were. And your legacy starts with the life you’re building right now.
