Hey, Heal Squad! Today's episode dives into the hidden emotional patterns so many high achievers are carrying… and why success still doesn’t feel like enough.Yup, this episode is for all of us who have crushed those work goals, hit a promotion, but yet, weirdly still feels empty on the other side of it. Brooke Taylor…a career coach, former Google leader, and author of Healing the Success Wound unpacks why so many of us (especially high-achieving women) tie our self-worth to our output and end up burned out, anxious, and chasing a finish line that keeps moving. Brooke breaks down what a "success wound" actually is, the three roots of where it comes from (hint, hint...it's cultural, psychological, and emotional), and why your childhood gold stars might still be running your nervous system today. She also gets real about her own rock-bottom moment: sexual harassment at Google, her dad's terminal cancer diagnosis, and getting sober at 24, all in the same month. But from that. Brooke shares the first thing that truly began healing her own success wounds and why redefining success may be the key to finally feeling fulfilled. If you’ve ever felt like no matter how much you accomplish it’s still not enough… this episode is going to hit home.
HEALERS & HEAL LINERS
-
A success wound = when you only feel valuable when you're achieving. Brooke calls it the "empty cup." Every win you pour in (the promotion, the money, the applause) drains right back out because the cup itself is cracked.
-
There are 3 roots of the success wound: Cultural ( we were trained to measure our worth by what we produce), Psychological (childhood taught us that love and approval are earned by performing), Emotional (we lost touch with who we are underneath what we do)
-
Awareness is where the healing starts. The moment you can name the wound, you take your power back. You're not broken — you're conditioned, and conditioning can be rewired.
