Hey...
We’re well into 2023 and we’re still killing ourselves for work.
We’re talking leaders, marketers, managers, freelancers and entrepreneurs burning the candle at both ends while working 60+ hours a week and watching their mental, emotional and physical health suffer because of it.
Let’s look at the facts:
Gallup’s “State of the Global Workplace 2023” show stress at work is at a record-high level.
59% of workers are “quiet quitting,” i.e. not engaged; and 18% are “loud quitting.”
Gallup estimated that low engagement is costing the global economy nearly $9 trillion.
More than 50% of managers feel burnt out.
70% of the C-suite are seriously considering quitting for a job that better supports their well-being.
Companies with good corporate culture report 4X higher revenues.
87% of business leaders believe that creating the right workplace model is key to their success.

It’s safe to say we’re due for a revolution…
The Unhustle Podcast with Milena Regos
The Unhustle Podcast is a place where we celebrate the humans who have the courage to change culture.
We explore the mindset, limiting beliefs, powerful stories and new ways of living, working and being, going against our addiction to busyness and creating a massive impact, without burning out.
Individually, we create small ripples of change, but together we can create a movement.
MANIFESTO
ONE.
We challenge the cult of busy.
We reject the notion that tiredness is a virtue. We recognize that wellbeing, true productivity and creativity thrive when we slow down. We believe that success is measured by the cultivation of a life that brings us joy, purpose, and fulfillment and a healthy and thriving society. It takes courage to unlearn and relearn.
TWO.
We put wellbeing first.
Mental health is wealth. Emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual health is our biggest asset. We understand that when self-care slips, performance drops.
Leisure is a success metric, not laziness. We rest when we’re tired.
THREE.
We create success on our terms.
We dare to rewrite the script of success and step into our authentic power. We get fully aligned with who we are and our superpowers.
Real success begins on the inside. We feel whole, we feel enough and we feel abundant and rewire our scarcity into abundance. We know who we are and who we are not.
FOUR.
We're joy seekers.
We find joy in experiences, not stuff. We make time to rest, play and explore. We replace FOMO with JOMO. Snuggling is better than scrolling. We seek joy in the inner world and our inner child. We find awe, wonder and wisdom.
FIVE.
We believe in real living.
We free ourselves of the rules and the shackles of “shoulds” and “have-to’s,” fear and victim mindset. We see time as our most scarce asset and we live now without waiting for “someday.”
SIX.
Simplify to amplify.
Less is more. We focus on what matters most each day and say No to everything that’s out of alignment with our values – in work and in life, even if it sounds like an amazing opportunity. We walk the talk.
SEVEN.
Slow down to speed up.
We slow down, breathe and operate from a place of presence. We choose intention over multi-tasking. We control where we direct our awareness, focus and energy. We develop a healthy relationship with technology, reclaiming our worthiness, focus, and impact from the world of endless distractions and manipulative influence.
EIGHT.
Purpose Before Profit.
We live purpose-full life and build purpose-driven company. We know why we get up in the morning, and we have a purpose bigger than ourselves. Purpose makes us unfuckwithable and builds more profitable companies.
NINE.
We create quantum leaps.
We reclaim our focus in a world competing for attention. We create peak experiences in life and peak performance at work. When we work mindfully, we can be more productive and creative.
We reclaim our creativity, productivity, and potential.
TEN.
We rebel to live and work well.
We recognize our interconnectedness and work towards building a harmonious society creating a better future for all.
We replace Hustle Culture with Human Culture.
It’s not about the future of work. It’s about the future of humanity.
