The Fakecation Crisis: Why We Suck at Taking Time Off
Manage episode 472152707 series 3550613
Ever come back from a vacation feeling like you need… another vacation? Welcome to the Fakecation Crisis—where we take time off but somehow end up just as exhausted (or more) than before.
In this episode, Marion, Cacha, and Danny rank different types of time off based on how rejuvenating (or soul-sucking) they actually are. From all-inclusive beach lounging to visiting family (a.k.a. free labor disguised as a trip), we’re breaking down why so many of us are bad at unplugging—and how to actually take a break that works.
We discuss:
✅ The most rejuvenating vs. most draining types of time off
✅ Why your PTO shouldn’t involve a group chat, guilt, or a to-do list
✅ The surprising psychology behind why we self-sabotage rest
✅ How to stop treating vacations like productivity sprints
Whether you’re planning a getaway or just fantasizing about one, this episode is your permission slip to actually rest.
