Humanist productivity is my alternative to hustle culture - productivity that centres us all as people.
The three pillars are:
Authenticity: remembering authenticity over perfection. Build ways of working that fit the truth of who you are today.
Community: Connection over individualism. Stop trying to do everything alone, and design support into how you work.
Resilience: Sustainability over burnout. Choose a pace you can keep, and protect your energy like it matters, because it does!
This podcast reflects on the productivity classic “Getting Things Done” by David Allen.
Remember: this episode is generated with AI, using my voice and my writing. I’m experimenting with how to use new tools with care, and make ideas more accessible in more formats. AI can sound confident and still be wrong. If you spot anything inaccurate, oddly phrased, or missing nuance, I would genuinely love you to tell me. This month’s AI decided James was my daughter! Consider it a friendly “spot the glitch” moment, and a chance to help me make the next version better.
