Coach Keren on Why Success Alone Isn’t Enough—and What True Fulfillment Really Looks Like


Listen Later

In this compelling and thought-provoking episode, we sit down with Keren Eldad, known globally as Coach Keren—executive coach, speaker, and thought leader whose mission is to help high achievers break free from the exhausting loop of “more, more, more.”

Coach Keren’s clients include Olympic athletes, Fortune 500 executives, startup founders, and even political leaders—but her message is universal: success without fulfillment is a trap. Her coaching philosophy centers on the idea that internal alignment and self-worth are the keys to sustainable success—not just hustle, accolades, or external markers of achievement.

Whether you’re a CEO constantly chasing the next milestone, or simply someone who feels like they’ve checked all the boxes but still feel empty, this episode will leave you questioning what it really means to “make it.”

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

  • Why traditional success often leads to burnout or dissatisfaction
  • The hidden cost of living in constant pursuit
  • How to reframe ambition through the lens of self-leadership and conscious choice
  • Tools Coach Keren uses with elite performers to achieve real, lasting fulfillment
  • How to shift from performance-driven identity to purpose-driven impact
  • What it takes to lead with clarity, confidence, and calm

Quotes from Coach Keren:

“High achievement doesn’t mean high fulfillment—and that gap is where most people burn out.”


“You don’t need to change who you are. You need to remember who you are, and operate from that truth.”


“The next level of your life isn’t about doing more. It’s about becoming more whole.”
