That version of success that looks good on paperโbut just feels...empty.
Itโs so easy to get caught in the momentum of everyoneโs expectations. What someone else may have said you โshouldโ do.
Believe me โ as a high-performer I got so caught up in it that I didnโt realize I was living someone elseโs version of success until I was 51!ย And once that became clear, it took me the next couple of years to pick up the proverbial rug and reveal a whole me that I had swept underneath for so long!
