You believed the lie. The one that told you if you achieved enough, pleased enough people, that you would finally be “enough.” For years, you’ve been reaching one goal after another, but on the other side, you still feel just as empty, stuck, or unfulfilled. You may experience a lot of anxiety stemming from the pressure you put on yourself, or you may notice yourself feeling unhappy in your life or relationships, despite how perfect it looks on the outside.
Many high-performing adults struggle internally with childhood wounds. Maybe you had a parent who was emotionally or physically absent and achievements got you the attention that you needed. Or maybe you had an overly critical parent and you were constantly trying to make them proud. Whatever the case, take a moment and thank yourself for being resilient. Now, it’s time to address those wounds. Just like you decided that you were going to be successful in your career, you can decide that you were going to be happy. You can decide to stop living under the weight of everyone else’s expectations.
Even as an insightful, motivated, intelligent person, this is a hard problem to solve on your own. Let me help you unpack the shit you’ve been carrying because we both know it’s getting heavy.
With therapy, you can:
- Improve work/life balance
- Have healthier relationships
- Respond from a good headspace rather than reacting when triggered
- Break generational cycles
- Explore areas that may be holding you back from your full potential
- Find fulfillment
