The Trap of Overachieving and How to Refocus on What Matters
from Coaching and Positive Psychology · host Valorie Burton, CaPP Institute
What if the pressure to achieve more is actually pulling you away from what matters most? In this episode of this limited series of The Coaching and Positive Psychology Podcast, we explore the difference between high achieving and overachieving and why so many high performers struggle to define what “enough” really looks like. We talk about how to recognize when your drive is aligned with purpose versus pressure, why overachieving often comes from deeper emotional patterns, and the coaching questions that can help you refocus your time, energy, and goals on what is truly meaningful.
