Personal Mastery with Jerry Henderson

What is Driving Your Achievements? | The Healthy High Achiever Series


Listen Later

In this episode, we continue our series on "How to Be a Healthy High Achiever," and as we discuss the critical role that your inner narrative plays in shaping your life, especially as a high achiever. 

I share insights into how your core beliefs, formed by past experiences and the stories you've carried, are driving your behaviors, causing symptoms like anxiety, imposter syndrome, and burnout.

By identifying the stories we tell ourselves and understanding the core wounds we have behind those stories, we can start to rewrite our story and our lives.

Key Takeaways:

  • How your core beliefs and stories are driving unhealthy achievement patterns
  • The role of childhood trauma and other wounds in shaping your current life
  • The power you have to rewrite your story and create a life of health and balance
  • A powerful journaling exercise to uncover your underlying motivations for achievement

If you're feeling stuck to find a healthy balance while achieving your goals,  this episode is for you. 

You can create a more sustainable, fulfilling life without sacrificing your well-being.
