Are you one of my many overachievers? Yes, you right now, listening to this podcast?
Hey - I'm an overachiever, too. And it can be a great thing - a useful thing. But only if we let it - make it - stay within some boundaries.
Because if we let ourselves go all out - just feed this work and to-dos and nothing else beast - pretty soon we're going to have nothing left of our families, our health, and ourselves but monster mode.
And that's not how you want to be living.
Today’s topics:
- The real reason why overachievers have such trouble setting (and holding to!) their own boundaries
- Why you’re resisting self-care as an overachiever
- How to set realistic goals when you’re an overachiever

You just have to subtly tweak each goal to include rest, and exclude hustle.
You’ve got this!
