Who sets your Priorities?

from Musings of a Former Overachiever Hosted by Holly Lewis

Getting sick forced me to cancel my plans this week, and it led to an unexpected question: Were these actually my priorities, or had I been operating on autopilot? In this episode of Musings of a Former Overachiever, we explore how illness can reveal your hidden operating system, why high performers often confuse urgency with importance, and how your nervous system may be choosing your priorities without you realizing it. If you've ever struggled to slow down, felt guilty for resting, or found yourself constantly reacting to everyone else's needs, this episode will help you reclaim agency and lead your calendar with intention instead of habit. PS: Join the free ⁠Overachiever's Lab⁠ to explore ways to experiment with what's not working for you.
