What if success doesn't give you what you thought it would? In this conversation, I sit down with soccer legend Landon Donovan—the face of American soccer—to unpack the hidden cost of success and why achieving at the highest level can still leave you feeling empty. By every measure, he made it. And yet behind the accolades, he was quietly struggling. We talk about the childhood wound that fueled his drive, the identity trap so many high performers fall into, and the moment everything unraveled after the 2006 World Cup. If you're someone who keeps chasing more but still feels like it's not enough, this episode will give you a new framework for pursuing success without losing yourself. More from Molly:
