Always Climbing, Never Landing

This episode breaks down why some people feel driven to always be the best, from perfectionism and learned self-worth to the brain’s need for constant achievement. It explains how that pattern can keep the finish line moving, making it hard to ever feel satisfied. And it offers a simple shift: you can keep climbing, but you also deserve to pause, recognize your wins, and say, “I did that.”
