Achievement looks good on the outside. But what happens when it’s the only way you know how to feel enough?

In this episode, Anna and Tim dig into the cycle of high performance and hidden emptiness. The pressure to be exceptional, the rush of gold stars, and the crash that follows. Join them as they unpack the subtle ways achievement becomes a coping strategy—and how joy gets lost in the chase.

This Episode Covers:

  • Why being “a lot” becomes a form of safety
  • The shame of being average
  • Getting hooked on gold stars and external praise
  • How achievement masks deeper needs
  • Living in hyperdrive vs being in your body
  • Mourning the version of you that needed to hustle
  • The fear of what happens when you stop
  • Finding value outside of doing

Until next time, here's to deeper connections and personal growth.
Mad love!
