Setting goals and reaching milestones is all about evolving, improving, growing - but they do not always create the sense of emotional fulfilment in the way that we think they will.

High achievers have a tendency to think "What's next?" and chase the next shiny object or goal that should take them to the next level...

But what if we made goals about loving what we already have rather chasing the things that seem beyond our reach?

This January, I'm asking you to take a moment to reflect on what you truly want to achieve this year, and explore some ideas to become fully aware of what you really want.

You're probably feeling it too - the wintery gloom, fatigue, list of social events and family obligations...

And on top of that, the sense of dread that 2023 is almost over.

"Where did the time go?"

"All the things I wanted to achieve??"

This self-narrative does not serve you, and can do more harm than good.

In this episode, I want to share with you one of the most challenging lessons I needed to learn as a high achiever.
