Detachment, Hustle Culture, and the Truth About Proving

In this episode of Mind. Body. Business., Jane Bellante explores the internal attachment that drives hustle culture — not just in business, but in life.

This conversation goes deeper than strategy. It examines the internal pull to prove, the pressure to perform, and the subtle belief that achievement will finally make us feel worthy. Jane shares personal reflections from her own health wake-up call in 2021 and how pushing through — even when everything looked “fine” from the outside — created a disconnect between success and fulfillment.

Inside this episode:

• How attachment to outcomes fuels anxiety in the body
• The hidden cost of proving yourself online
• Why reverse-engineering everything creates pressure
• The illusion of likes, views, and validation
• What detachment actually feels like
• The shift from hustle to intuition
• How identity shapes what you believe you must chase
• Creating from truth instead of performance

This is an honest conversation about what happens when you step off the treadmill of proving and begin leading from who you truly are — not who you think you need to be.

If you’ve felt pressure to keep up, go viral, optimize, or constantly “improve” yourself, this episode offers a different perspective: detachment as freedom, intuition as leadership, and truth as the only frequency that actually connects.
