Since the end of the COVID-19 pandemic, personal priorities have shifted. Many began to recognize the fragility of health, the value of family, and the all-too-common symptoms of burnout. In response, they are adopting a different approach. A new trend known as "soft productivity" has emerged as a guiding philosophy for a growing number of working Americans. In the five years since the pandemic, it has steadily taken hold, reshaping what "normal" looks like on the job.
When I asked Ciara what motivated her to start taking even better care of her health, I was struck by her answer.

For the majority of travelers, though, flying is a scrunched (and increasingly shrinking) torment that makes it impossible to fall asleep, exacerbates persistent back pain, or generally leaves them feeling sore and sour.
