In this episode, I sit down with Nina Elegba, founder of Recess Living, to explore how to build a slow and sustainable business without sacrificing your health. Nina shares her journey from the high-stress entertainment industry to creating a business that prioritises joy, rest, and well-being. We dive into the impact of hustle culture on mental and physical health, discuss the importance of setting boundaries, and share practical tips for balancing business growth with personal well-being. Nina also opens up about her nutrition journey, managing burnout, and her philosophy of integrating creative wellness into everyday life. If you’re an entrepreneur or creative looking to redefine success and build a business that nourishes both you and your clients, this conversation is for you. Tune in for actionable insights on embracing slow business, finding joy in your work, and prioritising self-care while achieving your goals.
