We need to talk. Hustle culture has had us out here running on fumes, thinking burnout is some kind of badge of honor. But let’s be real—it’s killing our joy, our health, and our peace. That’s why this episode of Wake Up Happy, Sis!was a game-changer for every high-achieving Black woman who’s tired of doing the most and getting the least in return.
We sat down with Danielle Detiege—a Work with Ease Coach helping creative professional women detox their calendars and reclaim their time—and Iona Meade, a soul-driven business mentor who teaches women to grow successful online brands without sacrificing their peace. Together, we exposed the myths of “grind culture” and laid out real, actionable strategies to help you prioritize what matters without feeling guilty.
You’ll walk away from this episode knowing how to set boundaries like a boss, reclaim your energy, and finally work SMARTER—not harder. Because success should feel aligned, not exhausting.
🎧 Listen in and start living that "paid and well-rested" life, Sis!
