Скачать или смотреть How Hard Work Hurts: Is Overworking a Form of Self Harm? | Jodi Jarrett | TEDxTWU

Dr. Jodi Jarrett addresses the glorified yet grim reality of today's hustle culture. This talk questions whether our late nights and endless tasks are truly signs of commitment, or desperate cries for help. Overworking is often celebrated as the key to success, but this drive can be a mask for deeper psychological issues, transforming productivity into a perilous obsession. Jarrett highlights the need to enhance mental health resources to recognize and address early signs of crises effectively. She explores how overworking, influenced by trauma and an exaggerated imposter response to limited resources, can become an act of self-violence and challenges us to reframe overwork and imposter syndrome not as personal failures but as systemic issues needing greater attention and balance. This discussion transforms psychological research into actionable insights to foster a healthier, more sustainable approach to work and success. Step into the world of Dr. Jodi Jarrett, where healing meets empowerment, and every conversation sparks a journey towards self-discovery.
