(347) Toxic Productivity: What I Wished I’d Understood Sooner About Productivity In this episode, we dive into the truth behind toxic productivity: the endless chase to optimise every minute, be efficient at all times, and measure your worth through output.  You’ll discover why this mindset leads to burnout, disconnection, and unhappiness and how to replace it with a calm, conscious approach that actually makes you more effective. Learn how to balance doing with being, reconnect with your presence, and shift from control and grind to flow and fulfillment. By the end, you’ll know how to create real productivity, the kind that feels aligned, meaningful, and sustainable. 💫 About Katie Stoddart: Katie is the founder of The Focus Bee, an international high-performance coach, speaker, author, and host of The Focus Bee Show.
