Ep. 40 - The High Achiever’s Trap and Redefining Success: Why You’re Always Looking Ahead Instead of Celebrating Now

Ever hit a milestone and immediately move on to the next goal without celebrating? You’re not alone. Today, we're diving into owning your success right now instead of constantly chasing the next big thing. We’ll unpack how perfectionism keeps you stuck, redefine success on your terms, and talk about why rest isn’t laziness—it’s strategy. 

It’s time to stop second-guessing and start celebrating YOU. 

What You’ll Learn:

•  How perfectionism fuels self-doubt (and how to break free)
•  Why redefining success will change your life
•  The power of rest & how it leads to real clarity

And if you like Tarot, there's plenty of that in this episode too as I used it to help guide this conversation, just like I did when I started this journey two years ago.
