#3: Breaking Down 3 Myths About Productivity

Chris LeBrun Episode 3

Are you working harder, staying busier, and chasing career success—yet still feeling burned out and unfulfilled? You might be falling for some of the most common productivity myths.

In this episode of the Wholistic Productivity Podcast, I break down three toxic misconceptions that keep us stuck in old-school productivity traps—and share the truths that can help you build a healthier, more balanced approach to getting things done.

You’ll learn:

  • Why working harder doesn’t always mean working smarter
  • How to stop confusing “being busy” with being productive
  • Why career achievements alone won’t bring lasting happiness
  • The role of priorities, planning, and balance in true productivity

If you’ve ever ended your day wondering, “What did I even accomplish?” this episode is for you. Let’s shift your mindset, challenge outdated beliefs, and focus on what really moves the needle in your professional, personal, and purpose-driven goals.
