“We’ve inherited beliefs about work that have been shaped by institutions and structures such as capitalism and patriarchy, often without our awareness. In the United States, the Protestant work ethic underlies many of our assumptions around work: we live to work instead of working to live. Beliefs like “Time is money” can lead us to override the intelligence of our bodies and hearts, to not listen when they quietly (or loudly) say to us, 'Enough!' When we accept, without question, these kinds of beliefs and assumptions, we limit our imagination about more nourishing possibilities for work.”
