Beneath the Busy: Insights into Workplace Mental Health
Episode 3 Busy is the New Lazy
Busy is the New Lazy, and it’s costing you.
In this episode of Beneath the Busy, Lauren Davis invites you to take a breath and get brutally honest:
Is all that busyness really necessary, or is it just a convenient cover?
We unpack:
- Why we wear “busy” like a badge of honour
- The myth of productivity and its hidden emotional cost
- How staying constantly in motion keeps us disconnected — from ourselves and from what matters
- And how even the smallest intentional pause can change everything
If you’re tired of the hustle-but-not-alive feeling, this one's for you.
Because maybe the bravest thing you can do today… is stop.
