I’m pleased to share a recent conversation I had with Justine Toh.

Justine writes about cultural trends and contemporary beliefs in the Australian media and is the author of the mini-book Achievement Addiction. Her work encourages us to question society's obsession with achievement and external validation. Whether it’s academic scores, property ownership, or career success, we often tie our self-worth to measurable outcomes. Justine challenges us to reassess why we strive so relentlessly and whether redefining success on our own terms is possible.
