Who is Milena Regos?

What is Unhustling?
Milena started out chasing the dream. She was born in Bulgaria, and she came to America to pursue success. She did a lot, from doing marketing to going into media. Since she was working 18 hours a day, she started to feel burnt out.
She was sleeping four hours a day, with her phone beside her. During her waking hours, she was dividing her attention among three different screens. Her clients were from around the world, and she needed to cater to their time zones. She was hustling so much, it didn’t feel like a dream anymore.
“I was happy with all the success, but my health was suffering. I was drinking too much to manage my stress. It’s never-ending.” – Milena Regos
Milena says that after you feel that initial burn-out, you have to take a step back and reconsider the time you’re spending at work. You need time to rest, have a rest aesthetic. You also need time with your thoughts, to regain your creativity.
If you’re the type to work non-stop, Milena encourages you to take a break. Humans need to sleep, it’s part of the hierarchy of needs. If you’re not sleeping, all your other needs will be compromised. Being a workaholic is no longer cool. Sometimes you just need a breather and unhustle.
Nobody gets rich on a 9-5 you don’t love, and compromising your other human needs might just make you unlove what you’re doing.
