Why High Achievers Often Feel Empty: A Deep Feeler’s Dilemma
Episode Description
In this solo episode, I open up about the unexpected connection between being a deep feeler and living life in performance mode. From my personal story of burnout and relationship misalignment to the experiences of my clients, I unpack how sensitivity, rejection, and the need for deep connection can drive us to overwork, people-please, and push ourselves beyond our limits. If you're a high-achieving, highly sensitive person who still feels unfulfilled no matter how much you accomplish — this episode is for you. Together, we explore what it really means to meet your core needs, and how aligning with your true essence creates more success, ease, and joy.
