Episode notes
What if the thing you've been chasing - success, discipline, being impressive, being the good girl is the exact thing keeping you stuck?
I this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Alessandra Wall (clinical psychologist turned executive coach) to talk about the gilded cage of achievement: when your life isn't bad, but you still feel trapped, tired, and unsatisfied with your life. We get into how to stop performing wellness and start actually experiencing it and what integration really means. (Hint: you're not one thing you're a disco ball)
We also talk about why the psychological always beats the logical, how to "act despite" insecurity, and the simplest question that changes everything: if you believed what you know, what would you do differently?
