At the end of 2024, I was beyond burned out — very much “burning the candle at both ends.” Then I came across a new book called Toxic Productivity by Israa Nasir, a licensed therapist in New York City who also founded the digital community Well Guide. As it turns out, Israa struggled with many of the same things — saying “yes” to too many commitments and overscheduling herself, while taking little time for herself.
