The modern woman, defined, is someone who goes after what she wants without asking for permission or apologizing for it. She doesn’t wait for a man’s approval or blessing. She goes for her dreams. While that may sound empowered, in theory, the way you go after something speaks volumes. All too often, I see high achievers chase what belongs to someone else. I see the aspirationally successful run through caution lights and stop signs to have what amounts to someone else’s definition of success. Then when they arrive there, they are disappointed that it didn’t give them what they really desired. Today’s episode examines this success trap. The ups, the downs, the sideways of trying to live up to someone else’s definition and the cost to your soul’s joy.

ABOUT ME

I transformed a temp position into a business in less than a year. By all intents and purposes, she was successful. Yet, over the subsequent 7 years, she felt trapped. What was she missing? She authored 3 books, launched 2 more businesses, discovered her purpose and finally found her Mr. Right, yet none of it brought true contentment. It wasn't until what she built fell apart that she found her missing piece. And now, this Life and Relationship Solutions Coach helps achievement-driven women redefine what makes them enough, on their own terms, so they can experience love and life in a brand new way.
