Mind Your Own Dog Business
The Addiction Of Busyness
Show Notes Transcript


In this episode of Mind Your Own Dog Business, Kristen Lee shares her struggles of being addicted to working, achieving, and the need for consistently having to produce and be overstimulated, and her toxic habits that sent her world crashing several times.

She also discusses the mindset of the Hustle & Grind Culture and how it is a scam that has been sold to the dog trainers and dog businesses owners as something they must be doing, 24/7.

 The "hustle" is a status symbol and keeps many incredibly talented dog trainers mediocre, and it doesn't allow you to be productive; it just keeps dog biz owners busy.

She also digs deep into the Hustle Crisis Cycle, how dog biz owners can create toxic habits to compensate and signs to know if you're in a hustle crisis cycle and addicted to work - and how to break your patterns.

Speaker 1:

Hey, everyone. Welcome to today's episode of the mind, your own dog biz podcast, the uncensored podcasts of the pet dog industry that keeps it real. That keeps it raw and it keeps it fresh. Before I get right into this guys, I want to give a trigger warning. This episode talks about family trauma, and it also talks about substance abuse. Now, if those are things that are your trigger, I just wanted to give you that space and a decision. If you want to continue on listening, if not, I understand. Just know I hold space for you in my heart. I send you my love and I wish you the best. Okay? All right. I'm going to get right into it now. Okay. This is going to be a hard one. My name is Kristen, and I'm an addict. I've been an addict for about 30 plus years. Before you start questioning what can somebody that's 37 years old, be addicted to for 30 years. I'm going to put this out here to consistently working, hustling, achieving seeking validation. Now give me a second. Hear me out before you jump off and roll your eyes at me. I understand there's no general, um, accepted medical, uh, medical definition of such a condition, but a lot of the times being a workaholic and being addicted to work and consistent simulation and having the forms of stress usually includes like an impulse control disorder, obsessive compulsive personality disorder, ADHD, and obsessive compulsive disorder. I am not in any way. So don't twist my fucking words, guys being fatigued or downplaying any of the crazy ass epidemics of opioids, methamphetamine, alcoholism, and all the other issues around substance abuse. If you guys don't know, I'm going to share a little bit about my family history, because those substances actually hit extremely close to home. Like so close to home. It's in my DNA. I'm adopted. I was adopted at birth by my grandparents. They are my mom and they are my dad. They're incredible, incredible industrious people. I love them. My mom gave me my mouth, by the way. However, my birth mother suffered my biological birth mother suffered from addiction, her entire life. She was actually addicted to alcohol amphetamines and cocaine. It ended up costing her life at 49 years old in 2015. So when I talk about addiction, I talk about the addiction genes and DNA running through my fucking veins. As I talk and through the patterns that were indoctrinated to me as a child and the rewards and the recognition and achievement to get parental approval because I was a fucked up adopted kid. Apparently that's what I told myself as a kid. But listen, you can develop a unhealthy toxic habit of consistently working and hustling and grinding your face off. Even if you don't have a genetic disposition or whatnot, because if you're an entrepreneur, which you probably are listening to this, if you're not, that's totally cool too. You're a business owner. And as entrepreneurs, as business owners, you've been indoctrinated and programmed into the hustle and grind your face off to death cycle in the world of entrepreneurship and all that fun stuff. So you're probably rolling your eyes. You're probably like, Oh God, first of all, problems being addicted to work and success and whatnot and achievement and producing. It's a real thing guys. And I see, and I hear, and I talk to, and I work with business owners, some of the most brilliant and smart and talented dog trainers out there addicted to this addicted to consistently having to be fucking on-call working no matter what and what starts to happen, because that is a toxic habit of being in a hustle cycle, in a grind cycle, on a work cycle, you start to develop toxic habits to compensate. I know a lot of, lot of business owners that do drink. I listen, no, I do like to have my hard cider and my extra sour margaritas and double shot with some salt on the rocks. I know a few business owners that are smokers because these are toxic habits that we use to soothe and wind down. Now here's the problem. This is where it lies. And what I see it lies in. We've been told if we're not working consistently for not hustling and grinding as a business owner, we're going to fail, or we have to consistently keep doing that. Now I know it's not applicable to all you guys. And I understand that and I love you. You can still listen, but we've been just sold into this, this definitive quote unquote truth that we need to always be doing something. We always need to be busy and for not busy or productive, we're fucking lazy. And we're not successes and whatnot, hustle and grind, baby. It's like hustle, hustle, hustle. I don't need to sleep. I'll sleep when I'm dead. Ask my, ask my biological mother, how that's working out for her, but wow, that got dark really deep, but it looks something like this. Wake up work dogs work with clients. Eat, have a drink, work dogs kind of check in with your loved ones, work, work, work, crash, and repeat. It's almost like when you get into this work, a holic hustle cycle every fucking day is Groundhog day. You can't seem to get organized and nothing ever changes everything blurs into one, especially with this pandemic eyes. I mean, this is amplified even fucking more. I see this and something I do want to be clear on before I go a little bit deeper into the hustle cycle and everything like that, because I want to create clarity around something. Before you call me a hypocrite, call myself out here. There are going to be times, there are always going to be times, including myself, including grassroots, including our clients, including you guys that you're going to have to hustle. You are going to have to pull up your bootstraps. You're going to have to grind it out. Fuck even a dog with skull. We have a hustle plan. We call it that helps dog business base. Biz owners create strategic hustle to get cash injections. You know, some people have even created up to like 30 K in cash, but this is the difference. This is the difference I want to talk about between being strategic with a hustle and pulling up your bootstraps and then longterm success in healthy habits. Hustling is not meant to be longterm, nor is it sustainable, nor is it sustainable. It might feel sustainable to you guys right now. If the ones that are struggling with us and working your asses off, cause it's the pattern you, you know, and that's comfortable. Why is it not sustainable or healthy? Well, it's especially true for you guys that are dog trainers, dog walkers, because you guys have physically demanding jobs that require acute attention. Meaning you guys gotta be at the top of your game. Cause you're working with animals at the end of the day. No matter, you know, if they're a Labrador or be Shaun or a labradoodle or whatnot, you're dealing with animals that can bite, that can get hurt, that can bite others or whatnot. And you're dealing with humans. So it's critical that we talk about,

Speaker 3:

Okay. Okay.

Speaker 1:

So if you go back and you go to the episode, I believe it was 55. I'm not sure don't hold me to that. It's called more marketing. I went into depth around the marketing hustle crisis cycle. Now that was an adaptation from the hustle crisis cycle,

Speaker 3:

Which is

Speaker 1:

So rampant, which we see all the time. It's not just in the pet dog industry, either it's through anyone else who's ever been in a business owner or an entrepreneur. I see it a lot in the space of personal development coaches too, or people that are becoming business coaches. It's just consistently hustle crisis and go into a

Speaker 3:

Cycle. So what is it

Speaker 1:

Is the hustle crisis cycle. It's very similar to that marketing hustle crisis cycle. Like I said, it's an adaptation of it. So I want you to think about this. Think of circle graph, okay. At the top of the circle, this is where you're tired. You're in complete depletion. You're unmotivated. Generally speaking mentally, you might not be doing well. Physically. You're drained emotionally. You're drained spiritually. You're just like

Speaker 3:

The depleted.

Speaker 1:

So you stay at the top of the cycle, no matter how long it can be. It's up to the individual, how long they stay in it, usually biological need and then psychological need kicks in. And then you're like, Oh fuck, I need to go do this and do that. Maybe it's like, Oh shit. I need to create a course for my students. My dog owning students. Oh shit. I need to go and make sure I get my marketing into play. Oh my God, my cash is getting low. I need to go out there and sell, sell, sell. So I need to do this and do that. So what starts to happen as you move down clockwise, you get a hit of motivation. It's like a dopamine hit. And then you have this temporary motivation. You're all like jazzed up. That's why, that's why motivational speakers kill it guys. Cause you go listen to them. They get you jazzed up. They get your fucking dopamine going. They get your blood going. They get you excited. And then you go rush out and do all this stuff. And the things you get temporarily motivated, you get rewarded by that. And then you get results or you might not get results or whatnot. Then you get tired again, you crash. And you're back at the top of the cycle. It's fucking crazy. Right? Fucking a. So this is something that a lot of you guys get stuck in. This is why I want to create awareness. It and here is the most interesting fact around the hustle crisis cycle and the pet dog industry is the people that are struggling the most financially. Aren't usually stuck in the cycle just yet. It's the ones that are doing really well. And they don't have awareness around it. Dare I say the most successful ones are the most addicted ones too into the hustle crisis cycle. So I'm going to be real with you, you know? Yeah. I'm always real. I'm always uncensored. I'm always raw. The truth is consistently hustling and grinding is a scam you've been sold. And the dopamine that you get from being in the SA, that cycle keeps you addicted. Boom, thing about that, think about where that is showing up with you right now, your past, or even maybe your future. Are you sitting here feeling bad for yourself that you are actually taking five minutes to listen to a podcast and you're, you could be working in doing something else. Do you go to at and thinking, Oh my God, I'm lazy because I haven't done a, B, C, and D and gone through my whole entire list of post it notes. And to do lists no books, you might be in that cycle. So I'm going to share my story. Yes. I'm going to go a little bit more into my story. So I've been working and achieving and producing. Since I was a kid like a really young kid, like started at like five, six or seven. My parents, especially my dad, my grandfather, but who is my dad have installed. He's my adopted dad. That sounded weird by the way, has always installed crazy strong worth ex work ethics to the entire family. Now there's a difference between being addicted to work and hustling, and then having a strong work ethic, which I'm going to actually have mahogany gamble come on and talk about. But going back to my, my early childhood, I can remember my dad, a federal employee of 50 plus years. He retired back in 2017 when he got kicked out for being too old at 70 something, he, he worked six days a week, minimum 12 hour days. And if was an opportunity to work, he'd suit up and Headon, we were upper-middle-class as a kid. I was, we're very privileged family where I lived in New Jersey, central Jersey. He didn't work because of the money we'll eat and go and do overtime or whatnot. He worked because that's what was instilled to him as a child himself, because my great grandfather came over from Poland in 1939 to escape the Nazi occupation to Poland. And he was told as a child, my dad was born in 1942. You work, work, work till you die. Okay. So my dad and just do it for the overtime or whatnot. It was just a strong instilled work ethic. So my dad would have these crazy 12 hour days, 12 plus hours a day, come home, you take off his, he take off his suit and then he would go and do shit around the house, do special projects and whatnot. This was celebrated in my family. Like I remember my aunts, my uncles, my grandparents, my great grandparents, just cheering about this all the time. My mom was like, your dad's such a hard worker and whatnot. So this started to be instilled in my subconscious as a child. You know, being a young impressionable child. And as a kid, you start to soak up those behavioral patterns from your parents and form your own patterns. So at five, six or seven, I was essentially quote unquote working cause I had a horse and I had to take care of it to pay my horse stall, rent, boarding rent back in the day and to like show horses and whatnot. I had earned my keep. I had earned my keep and this cup repeating up until middle school. You know, I used to joke with it, this, with this fucking like almost air of arrogance, like, Oh, when I was 12, but now I'm like, fuck, I was fucked up. This was not a childhood, but by middle school, I own two horses. At one time. I don't say this to brag for the most part to be financially responsible for. I always had a horse in training with the goal to sell it so I could support my horseback riding and my other habits. I had a personal horse that I trained and showed and Rose through the ranks and the showing circuit. I did Hunter jumper. I got into a venting. I did that shit every weekend, up at three in the morning, going to shows across, uh, up and down the East coast and whatnot. I taught lessons again. I'm a middle school guys. I did burn towards, I played to competitive traveling sports and I kept my grades up to make honorable and most mocking periods. And I was also student of the month, multiple times. And why did I do this? I look back. I'm like, Oh my God, because I was consistently rewarded for this. Cause that behavior that got set six years before that, and I was rewarded with the validation from this, from multiple sources from my parents, from my friends, parents, my friends from my teachers, from my trainers and whatnot, my coaches, okay. It was pressure. I put myself under a lot of pressure going back. I'd be like, Oh my God, Kristen, take it easy on yourself and then go and smack everybody else. So over the years I had that consistent pattern of chasing the high of achievement and working and hustling. It's like work hustle, do the stuff, get admiration. And it kept amping and amping and amping and amping and kept wanting to one up myself and one up others. So fast forward, like 20 years by 2020 through 2015, this is like my pinnacle. Okay. This is my pinnacle of overachieving and getting rewarded and getting validated, have such a hard fucking worker. I am. I had a high level RO role job at a prestigious private company. I was traveling the world on an almost weekly basis, you know, one week in Dubai, one week in qual and poor two weeks in Tokyo, then I'd skip over to London. I mean, I'd literally get on a flight the night before and lax going to Tokyo at like seven in the morning. I take a shower at home. What's it called? I'm like, I can't think of the airport code anymore at all. What's it called? Anita? Cause they had showers at the executive club there and I'd be in the office at eight o'clock with a meeting. But doing that, all that travel my role, I was getting my graduate degree. My masters, I was becoming competitive in weightlifting at the same time. And I was also managing and operating a quarter, a quarter million dog training business with staff. Okay. I was like the head cheese. I was also that person that was always there, no matter what. So if my spouse was having a meltdown, I was there for him. I was there for him when he lost both of his parents, um, gave everything up and just to be there, but I still bounce it all out. I was there for my friends, my colleagues, my peers, that needed support that needed that, that extra boost of confidence. I was always helping a friend out, solving their issues, being an emotional dumping ground. I allowed people to emotionally dump on me and I absorbed it. So you know what? I can absorb that shit by working more, by achieving more. I don't need to fucking pay attention to my own emotional needs. Well, I can just work and add more stuff to my plate, replacing and burying my emotions with busy-ness and I'm going to be honest. I was an arrogant mother fucker. I still am a little bit. Yeah, because it's impressive. But I gotta tell you that shit caught up with me, caught the fuck up to me last year. But the real truth, I was sick. I starting to get really sick. I love corporate and I still had a ton of shit on my plate. My fucking plate was still full. My glass was still full without the corporate and I started and developing unhealthy habits, started drinking, started drinking at night to turn off my brain. Okay. If you ever go in my brain, I consistently have a million things running through my minds of like, I call it like a squirrel squirrels at a rave party. But then because I couldn't achieve as much as I wanted to. Cause I was only one person there's only 24 hours in the day. I started drinking at night to Sue the disappointment in the inner critic that beat me up. Cause I couldn't do it all. I forgot to eat most days until 10 o'clock or 11 o'clock. And then I would fill myself with unhealthy food. And then I gained that 50 pounds or the last four years, which also started another unhealthy cycle of internalized critical shame and self-loathing depression and anxiety. Cause I always valued having abs back in the day, having my defined quads, being that fucking amazing early thirties woman that could you CrossFit and could you muscle ups and do toast, the barn double unders and just run circles around people. And then here I am five years later, overweight, toxic feeling like crap, losing my hair because of stress drinking at night to sooth my issues. You know, I mentally punished myself for simple mistakes that I made in business with clients. God, cause I was so consumed with being busy. Sometimes I would forget to do contracts declines. Sometimes we'll actually know it. I didn't have any boundaries. I got too close to clients because I Seeked that belongingness. I Seeked it. I wanted it needed that kinship. It's like, Oh my God, they understand. And I got fucking boundary issues with that. And that hit me in the fucking ass like crazy. And those oversights, you know, it was the waste of emotional investment and actually financial investment to was, was critical, a crazy intense, Just focusing on achieving and producing. I get all these clients and whatnot. Thank God. You know, back in late 2019, I am Maggie Christina, my business partners like, Hey, listen, you know, we're stronger together and we need to do this together. And we became business partners and that took some of the pressure off. But then thank fucking God in early January of 2020 this year, if you're listening to this in 2020, Emily Nolan, she's been on here before she is our sales queen, which got us. She's our executive director of sales. She an, an Graham ape, which means she's the protector and she is the rebel and she will speak her truth. I'm an ed Graham, three producer achiever. And she sat, she gave me this massive wake up call. She's like, what the fuck are you doing? I'm not going to go into that. Cause it's, you know, I'm very shy share that. And I started recovering from this. It was going well. I mean, it was going well. I got boundaries in place. Grassroots got systems and operations in place. Everything got systemized. I started saying, no, I started cutting off connections to people that in serve me well emotionally, financially, not even financially, but like spiritually, I cleaned up my diet. I got very close with the reason why I was drinking a night and everything like that. I cleaned that up, got an amazing trauma, Thorne trauma informed therapist around all this type of stuff. We hired a team to delegate. I stopped the martyrism of being a consistent know life saver. I stopped one on one coaching with people. I dumped emotional and spiritual vampires, friends, family, clients, things like that. No hate to them. I just, you know, I always send my love. It's like, Hey, listen, you know what? If we were closed at one point and I stopped and I put a boundary to no contact. And again, this goes to friends, family past clients. I understand I was also a role that toxic relationship too. So I have no hate. I have no resentment towards that. I understand I played a part as well, but what started to happen was I started to regain my focus. I started to regain my stride. I started regain, my confidence started to do the work. I loved branding stuff. Operational management, um, created this beautiful course outline for the course we're running now doctors without borders, until everything came to a fucking screeching halt. My dog died. And like when I was forced to be a caregiver for the last couple months of her life, you can go back and listen to that episode. Cause I literally was on hospice care for my dog. And then July happened. She passed and I started the cycle again, fast forward two, three weeks ago or two weeks ago when I woke up Friday morning, Friday morning and I couldn't put sentences or thoughts together. And there was I again there I was again, burn the fuck out intellectually, emotionally, spiritually, and physically. I started have really dark thoughts. I was emotionally detached. I was angry. I was irritated. I started becoming mean again and I wanted to pick a fucking fight. I wanted to pick a fight with somebody and my brain was looking for overstimulation to keep the squirrels entertained and you know, get those demons in the shadows in my head. So what did I start doing? I defaulted into my addiction of hustling, of work, of grinding, of taking on more projects and responsibilities and overfilled my plate because I can control that. Thank God. Thank God. All I can say is that morning I called Maggie my business partner. I was like, I can't, um, I'm a potato. Like I can't put sentences together. And I had symptoms of this coming up because one of the biggest things was my creativity was gone. Like I couldn't even fucking write marketing and she's like, Oh yep. Okay, you're done. Bye. And she's like, you need to take a week off. You need to go do something. You need to be detached from everything. And she's like, this is what you need to do. Cause she knows me pretty damn well. I call her my work wife, even though I'm married to a man and you know, I'm so thankful that I had that support and I wish you guys had that support of, you know, somebody that you can connect to that you respect. I'm getting all teary. And then my husband was like, yeah, you need to fucking do something. He's like, cause you're becoming a raging bitch. And I love you. Deal with you. And you're a raging bitch. He's like, your shit is going crazy. You're in Terminator mode again, like he's like this needs to stop all this guys because I was chasing the fucking high of the hustle, all that because I was choosing the fucking high of the hustle and the fucked up part about this all when I was in my active rest and recovery period because I wasn't overstimulating and I wasn't trying to produce and finding stuff to do my anxiety flared hard core. It makes no sense because I wasn't stimulating in my brain. I was literally having with draws from fucking work. I got flipped the fuck out and became paranoid about unimportant shit and people and things happening beyond my control. My dark shadows crept in from traumatic experiences this past year. Thank God I am in much better place. Thanks to rest like strategic rests, a sensory deprivation tank, which is incredible. And my incredible trauma informed therapist and my grassroots team that I could delegate to that supported me in my husband that supported me too. And he's like, listen, he's like, you need to chill out. You don't need to do at all. So my point is guys, fuck the consistent hustle. Whoever is trying to sell you. That is in plain words, allying asshole. Okay, listen, I've had the thoughts of God. They're just not working hard enough. That's why it's not working for them. I'm an asshole for saying that and thinking that the consistent hustle and work and work and work is a status symbol. It's a privilege and it keeps you mediocre. It keeps you down. It doesn't keep you productive and actually creating your world. God given gift to work. It just keeps you busy. There's a really great quote from an author named John Spencer. And he wrote an article on medium, which is my favorite platform to read articles on. And he says, there's a difference between being busy and being productive, being busy as frantic while being productive, as focus, being busy is fueled by perfectionism. While being productive is fueled by purpose. Being busy is about being good at everything. While being productive is about being great at a few important things. Yeah. Anybody else like perfectionism equals Buisiness hello? God, how many times have you done something? And you're like, Oh God, this is not perfect. And then you scrap it. Just talking about that to my, uh, our grassroots students that are in our public speaking course. So kind of want to wrap this up. Are you still with me? How do you know if you're potentially addicted to work? And you're in a hustle crisis cycle? A really good key indicator is you're putting in long hours, but you're not productive. You're sleep is shit. Maybe you're having nightmares. Maybe you're having sleep paralysis. You're being obsessed with success and outdoing somebody or yourself consistently, or trying to one up yourself or out prove somebody. You have an intense fear of failure that keeps you awake at night. You're paranoid about your performance and your future or other things beyond your control. Your relationships are starting to fucking suck. Maybe your family members, like I don't know who you are anymore, or you're never around having an offensive attitude. Hi, using work as a way to avoid relationships. Hello, working to cope with feelings of guilt and depression, working to avoid dealing with crisises like death hits. Remember when I said, when I went to the tailspin, because my dog died divorce or financial trouble telling him when that dog died, rent right into workaholism and hustle. You're irritable. I mean like one little distraction sets you off and you're easily distracted. And then you get super angry when you're interrupted. It's like, you don't know who the fuck you're becoming brain fog. You feel like you're living in a fog. You can't put words to sentences. Anxiety is high. You're jumping to the worst case scenario. Defensiveness. I already said that. I don't know. I listed it twice, but I think it bears repeating and reduce creativity. That was one the drivers that keep to allowing that rest period for me. Cause I was like, this is not me. And like, how can I not write or talk or speak or even reach out to somebody. So if you're resonating with my story, these symptoms are indicators. Just know you're not alone. Like you're not alone, guys. You can't help it. Everything that surrounds us as entrepreneurs over focuses on achieving success and hustling and grinding your face off the first step is self discovery and understanding your patterns because they go back far to our childhood. Okay? I encourage you to seek a therapist that works with entrepreneurs to help hold back these laters layers and understand them and give you healthy coping mechanisms. I wish you guys that you have a trusted peer colleague, friend, partner, spouse, whatever to help support you. But the hope is, you know, one thing I do want to say being in the cycle for 30 plus years, the one thing you do have control of is you're in control of yourself. You can break your cycles, you can break your patterns to end the hustling and start to recover from being addicted to work. But like anything else, you're always going to be an active recovery because you're going to slip up from your triggers. Things are going to trigger you and you're going to slip up to deal with it. If you are emotionally and physically addicted to work, things are going to trigger you. You don't know and create boundaries, man. That's 2020 has been the year of boundaries for me and grassroots, but fucking boundaries. I came to the saying when I was, I was in my sensory deprivation tank, I was having like this, this exp psychedelic experience, almost like if I was on Iowasca, but I wasn't say I was just sitting in a tank. And I said, I had this thought of, you know, my boundaries might not feel nice to others, but they're kind to you. And you also need your hold yourself accountable, accountable to your own boundaries. You guys. Well, I hope you listened to this entire episode. This was a good one for me. I'm glad I got this out because yeah, that's my truth. I'll talk to you soon. Have a good one guys. Bye. Hey there. Thank you for listening to another bad-ass episode of mind, Euro dog business.
