Destroy The Hairdresser

Why Working Hard Isn’t the Point Anymore

19 Dec 2025

Description

In this solo episode, David steps in without a co-pilot and delivers one of the most honest conversations we’ve had on the podcast in a long time.This isn’t a hype episode.This isn’t a “set your goals and grind harder” episode.And it definitely isn’t about manifesting your way out of burnout.It’s about what happens after success.David reflects on the past few years — culturally, politically, personally — and challenges listeners to stop waiting for a global reset, a better year, or external permission to change their lives. Instead, he makes the case for individuation, sustainability, and choosing your own definition of success in an industry addicted to hustle and “more.”In this episode, he breaks down:Why hard work has very little to do with successHow the industry uses fake statistics and hustle myths to keep you stuckThe difference between achievement and fulfillmentWhy “more money” isn’t the same as a better lifeThe rarely discussed reality of Phase Four — when success arrives, boredom creeps in, and self-sabotage followsThis is a conversation about money, yes — but more than that, it’s about capacity. About learning how to sit with success instead of running from it or destroying it. About building a business that doesn’t collapse the moment you stop sprinting.If you’ve ever hit a milestone and thought, “Why doesn’t this feel how I thought it would?”Or if you’re exhausted by the endless chase for more — this episode will land.
