• Escaping the Achievement Trap - Why You Never Feel 'Enough' - No Matter How Much You Achieve

  Apply here for your free 30minute strategy session. Onto today's episode....You have everything you've ever wanted—the career, the house, the relationship—yet feel like it's never enough, as if something is still missing. This constant feeling of "never enough" isn't a lack of gratitude. It stems from a deeper issue: outsourcing your worth to external validation.When your entire sense of value is tied to what you achieve and how others perceive you, you're caught in an endless chase for more. Our sense of worth often comes from external validation, leading to a cycle where no achievement ever feels enough and the constant need to prove ourselves prevents genuine peace and contentment.High-achieving women often present a flawless exterior while internally drowning in anxiety, unable to slow down or truly enjoy their accomplishments. This pattern typically begins in childhood when we're praised primarily for performance or self-sacrifice, creating a dependency on external approval that becomes nearly impossible to satisfy later in life.This episode explores the profound difference between achievement-based success and enjoyment-based success, offering practical tools to break free from external validation addiction. Learn why "being everything to everyone else" is actually self-abandonment, not virtue, and discover simple daily practices that build internal validation and reduce dependency on outside approval.If you're tired of living life like a checklist and ready to experience genuine peace that no achievement can provide, this episode will help you reconnect with your inherent worthiness. In today's episode we cover:• High-achievers often appear successful on the outside while battling internal stress and anxiety• Self-worth becomes tied to achievement when raised on praise for performance and people-pleasing• The "martyr mindset" creates a cycle of self-abandonment that feels positive but leads to burnout• True worth comes from who you are, not what you do• Success should be measured by enjoyment, not achievement• Daily journaling on wins helps build self-validation and reduces dependency on external approval• Shifting from "milestone living" to "moment living" changes how you experience your life• High achievers often struggle with hyper-independence, seeing asking for help as weaknessSuccess isn't about ticking boxes; it's about living fully in each moment. Remember: your only goal in life is to enjoy it, and you're already enough exactly as you are.PS: If you're a CEO, leader or high achiever with outer success who wants the inner happiness to match I have a limited number of 30-minute strategy sessions available this month where I identify your biggest mindset block and give you three personalized strategies to get you unstuck.

• You'll Never Be Happy With What You Have Until You're Happy With Who You Are

  If you're exhausted from constantly worrying about what others think of you - you're not alone. For high achievers especially, external validation can become an all consuming addiction – the more you receive praise, the more you need. This relentless pursuit for more leaves you perpetually empty, no matter how much you achieve.I spent three decades trying to get others to like me, chasing validation through achievements and approval. Every time I reached a goal, I immediately needed something bigger – from teaching to department head, from my first 10K month to 20K. But with every achievement, the happiness was only ever fleeting, and I remained trapped in the belief that I simply wasn't enough exactly as I am.The breakthrough came when I realized a fundamental truth: until you're happy with who you are, you'll never be happy with what you have. True contentment isn't found in big achievements or others' approval – it's found in the present moment, in what I call "finding bliss in the basics."This episode explores the powerful shift from proving your worth to prioritizing your well-being. You'll discover why caring more about being respected than being liked changes everything, and how self-respect must come first. In this powerful episode, you'll learn:• The self-worth trap: why constantly proving your worth through achievements and approval only feeds feelings of not being enough• Why high achievers become addicted to praise and how this addiction is never satisfied• My three word mantra that helps you stay in your purpose, peace and power• Why happiness comes from who you are, not what you have or achieve• How to actually built self-trust and respect, simply and sustainably• Why self-acceptance beats self-improvement every day of the weekWhen you stop outsourcing your happiness, confidence, and self-worth and start living from the inside out, you experience freedom, confidence and peace that no achievement or validation could ever even come close to.Ready to live with less stress, more happiness and success? Let's dive in!PS: If you're a high achiever with outer success who wants the inner happiness to match, drop me a DM on IG @clairefealymindsetcoach or email [email protected] for more information.
