High Achievers Don't Burn Out From Ambition—They Burn Out From This

The perfectionism that's exhausting you. The self-doubt that follows you into every room. The burnout that came back even after you rested. None of it started at work — and no amount of productivity optimization, boundary-setting, or career strategy is going to fix something that was never a work problem to begin with. Susan Schmitt Winchester served as Chief HR Officer for two Fortune 500 companies and spent her career watching the most talented, driven professionals quietly unravel — not from ambition, but from unresolved experiences they carried into every boardroom, every performance review, and every moment they felt like they still weren't enough. What she wrote about in her number one internationally bestselling book Healing at Work and what she'll walk you through in this conversation is the most important career development work most high achievers never knew they needed. This episode won't just change how you work. It will change how you understand yourself.
