Episode Description: AJ and Johnny sit down with psychologist Guy Winch, author of Mind Over Grind, to unpack how grind culture quietly erodes our mental health, relationships, and sense of self — often without us realizing it. Guy explains why stress no longer stays at work, how rumination turns unpaid overtime into chronic burnout, and why many high performers confuse exhaustion with productivity. They explore the blurred boundary between work and home, the hidden damage of always-on thinking, and how modern workplaces amplify anxiety, resentment, and emotional withdrawal. This conversation offers practical ways to reclaim control: recognizing harmful rumination, creating transition rituals, recharging instead of just resting, and redesigning workdays to protect focus, relationships, and meaning — without sacrificing ambition.
