Unhustle: Milena Regos

Unhustle: Milena Regos

Milena is the founder of the Unhustle Movement, a certified human potential coach and podcast host on a mission to inspire 100 million people from all over the world to ditch the hustle culture mentality and begin a new way of living and working.

Hustling, grinding and being “on” are synonymous with working in hospitality. Someone always needs something from you and fear of letting them down or negative repercussions from not being available 24/7 are pervasive in our industry.

But that’s the whole point of today’s show. To recognize that this way of working isn’t sustainable and that we’ve got an opportunity to address it now, before everyone gets back to being too busy to care.

Rest, play, being present and focusing on our well-being helps us deal with stress, overwhelm and burnout, and can actually push our creativity and productivity towards optimal performance.

On this episode we discuss:

  • Why it’s hard to take action on slowing down (7:15)
  • Why it’s so hard to unplug and get away from distraction (12:23)
  • Getting over objection and resistance to changing behavior (15:07)
  • What you can do for yourself to change behavior and how you can support your team for the same (21:56)
  • Don’t assume that everything on your team is OK (25:39)
