Weâre taught from a young age that success is the best path to a fulfilling and satisfying life. So achievers dedicate themselves to achieving, thinking it will bring success.
The problem is, success is not the same thing as fulfillment. And often, the more successful you become, the emptier you feel inside. As your relationships crumble, your self-doubt, loneliness, and existential fear consume you.
Worst part?
Success only further magnifies these feelings. You could have all the material success in the world, but youâll still feel hollow inside.
In todayâs episode, youâll discover the hidden emotional toll of success, how to face buried feelings before they sabotage everything you love, and how to be both successful and fulfilled.

Most achievers who want more from lifeâwhether in their relationships, career, or fulfillmentâturn to best-selling self-help books.

One such ancient book that offers a treasure trove of wisdom is called the Zhuangzi, an early Daoist text. And while itâs more than 2,000 years old⊠the wisdom contained inside this text is timeless. In fact, itâs even more useful in modern life than it was in ancient times.
In this episode, we're diving into wisdom that could completely reshape your life coming from a source that most achievers have never even heard of. It's ancient, it's profound, and it might just unlock what you've been searching for in love, career, and your inner life.

There is a massive, misery-inducing downside of success:
While achievements are great, they arenât enough to make life meaningful. But most achievers have been tricked into believing the exact opposite. And the more they achieve their wildest goals, the more empty they feel inside.
If you keep grinding without reflecting on why youâre so miserable, you may find yourself ready to call it quits with lifeâeven if you have external success that makes others jealous. In fact, I found myself in this exact situation: I achieved every goal I had as a teenager⊠but ended up on a ledge on the 57th floor on a skyscraper ready to jump.
Why?
Because achievements alone donât make life meaningful and conquering more goals without addressing your emotions will only make you more miserable.
But donât worry - thereâs a way out of this vicious cycle.
In todayâs episode, I reveal how you can break out of this achievement trap, why your personal happiness improves your productivity and creativity, and how to stop seeking success for successâs sake.

Do you ever wish you were more alpha?
Itâs a big buzzword thrown around in forums by bitter and resentful men. And if you keep striving to be more alpha, youâll suffocate your relationships, suppress your emotions, and sabotage your happiness.

Today Iâd like you to meet Ryan.
Ryanâs a first responder with a strong sense of fairness, and he loves to help people who need it.
Those are both noble qualities, so on the surface it all sounds great. But as Ryan processed the end of a marriage he tried to make sense of why some things bothered him so much, and why certain patterns kept repeating in his life.
He turned to me to talk about it, and together we explored how even great qualities can cause problems when theyâre driven by unresolved issues lingering beneath the surface.
This episode is definitely for you if you get enraged when people offend you, or have trouble setting boundaries. Youâll learn the difference between healthy and unhealthy boundaries, and practical questions to ask yourself as you work through situations that make you mad.
Youâll also be reminded that youâre probably not broken, you probably donât need fixing, but you, like everyone else, can still grow, improve, and mature. Remembering this can help you be more empathetic to yourself and others.
