Do you need to sacrifice wellness for your ambitious pursuit of success? If you take time to pause and rest, will you lose out to those who are pushing through and out-hustling you?

Grammy Award-winning recording artist, New York Times bestselling author, podcast host, and thought leader Lecrae joins the Addy Hour Podcast with Dr. Nii Addy to discuss this and more. Tune in to this powerful conversation, which was filmed in front of a live audience on the Yale University campus.

With raw authenticity, Lecrae takes us on a personal journey, describing the benefits and pains of ambition in his own life. We dig into the tension, we talk candidly, and we confront lies about ambition and wellness.
You’ll also hear us explore the neuroscience of rest, community, and gratitude. On a practical level, we share tips you can use to pursue both wellness and ambition, even when it doesn’t seem possible.

This is one of those conversations that will sit with you for a while. It’s that good.

The Addy Hour is recorded at the Yale Teaching Studios, with engineering support from Ryan McEvoy, editing by Orlando Suazo, and hosted by Dr. Nii Addy. If you enjoyed this episode, please leave a rating and follow our podcast page to help us grow this podcast and our community.
