Over the last several years we have seen the rise in the gig economy and hustle culture. More and more people are attempting to achieve greater freedom and higher income through gigging, side hustles, or simply working more. Yet, few people are drawing attention to the lies of hustle culture and the risk of burnout. In this episode, author Daniel Im joined me to talk about these issues and the lies that we believe about work and life.
Daniel is the lead pastor of Beulah Alliance Church in Edmonton, Alberta and the author of several books including his latest You Are What You Do: And Six Other Lies About Work, Life, and Love. He co-hosts two podcasts the New Churches Q&A Podcast and the IMbetween Podcast. Daniel has an M. A. in Global Leadership and has served in churches in Canada, Korea, and the United States.
