Welcome to The Mindset Gym Podcast!

What if you’ve been prioritizing the wrong thing your entire life?

In this episode, we challenge hustle culture and flip the traditional career narrative on its head. Instead of letting your job define your identity, we explore what happens when you treat your hobbies like your career — and your job like the side hustle that funds your growth, creativity, and purpose.

If you work a typical 40-hour week, that’s only 23% of your total time. Even after sleep, you still control nearly half of your life — yet most people treat that time as an afterthought. That’s not a time problem. It’s a mindset problem.

Backed by psychology and behavioral science, we break down why hobbies and leisure aren’t indulgent or “unproductive,” but are actually linked to:

• Higher happiness and life satisfaction
• Lower stress, anxiety, and burnout
• Improved mental health, resilience, and focus
• Better cognitive function and long-term brain health

You’ll learn practical, actionable strategies to start prioritizing your passions without guilt.

This episode is for anyone feeling burned out, stuck in the grind, or disconnected from what lights them up — and ready to redefine productivity, success, and a well-lived life.

Your job shouldn’t consume your identity — your life should.

Treat your passions like your profession, and watch everything else improve.
