About this episode

In this episode, Kriti Mohan discusses the misconception that peace and rest equate to laziness, particularly among high-achieving individuals.

Hey everyone! Welcome back to my podcast, Kritical Moments , where we talk about happiness and mental health like they’re real, lived experiences, not just buzzwords. I’m your host, Kriti, and today’s episode is called “ Peace is Not Laziness .” I want to start with a confession. One that a lot of high-achieving people are going to recognize. We’ve normalized burnout so much that rest feels like something you have to earn. Like if you didn’t finish everything, you don’t deserve to sit down. If you’re not being productive, you’re falling behind. If you’re calm, you must not be trying hard enough.
