The Overwork Trap Most High Achievers Get Stuck In

A top executive wakes up at 4 am.

Spends all day on calls and work.

Takes a short break in the evening.

Then gets right back to it.

“I want more 'me' time. I want to be involved with my community. I want presence. To just enjoy the moment. And I’m not doing that.”

Then a CFO with a demanding job.

Always on, ensuring they’re answering all emails and on top of all projects.

On top of that, started a new business.

Taking order after order, knowing it’s too much, but keeps saying yes.

The common thread between these two executives? 🚩

They're not setting boundaries.

They’re stuck in the belief that more work = more success.

✋ Reality check: overworking leads to burnout, not breakthroughs.

True success is not about the relentless grind. It's about balanced, impactful work.🌟

That’s why a big part of my work with clients is clarifying what they want their lives to look like and building their work and career around that.

Just because you’ve always done it one way…

Doesn’t mean it’s the only way.
