    Do you find yourself in a never-ending chase for the next achievement, the next form of external validation? Well, despite how rampant this chase runs through high achievers, it leads you down a road that only ends in exhaustion, disappointment, and even depression.

    Worst part?

    No matter how much “success” you accumulate, it will never provide the deep sense of fulfillment your soul is yearning for.

    That’s the bad news.

    The good news?

    While redefining success is one of the most difficult things you can go through (especially after you’ve achieved so much external and societal success), not only is it possible, but it’s the most rewarding thing you can do.

    And in this episode, I outline the 3 steps you need to take to redefine success, so you can self-actualize and become a much more fulfilled version of yourself.

    Listen now.

    Show Highlights Include:

    • The “halfway up the pyramid” problem that robs high achievers from the most fulfilling parts of their lives (2:37)
    • How to stop relying on external markers for your self-worth with the “wealth from within” secret (3:29)
    • The “Two C’s” trap high achievers fall into that creates a recipe for suffering (4:03)
    • 2 difficult questions you must ask yourself—and answer—to achieve a level of self-actualization that transcends material and external success (6:08)
    • The weird reason why traumatic experiences are an opportunity to discover your purpose in disguise (8:12)
    • How thinking more like a toddler can reconnect you to your true self and true purpose (21:42)
