What do you think of when you hear the word ‘success’?

Success is a word that holds so much power in society. Perhaps you associate it with achievement, job status, a luxurious lifestyle, an overflowing bank account, living in a specific location, having your own business, the list is endless. Have you thought about what “success” really means to you?

When we think of success it’s easy to find ourselves constantly comparing our journey to others, measuring our worth on superficial indicators, but is that the true meaning of success?

In this episode of The Aligned Achiever podcast we’re peeling back the layers and exploring the reality of what success is beyond the superficial perceptions. I’m taking a look at 6 myths of success and the differences between the perception and reality of having a successful career.

Have you ever been asked at an event…. “So what do you do?” How do you feel about that question? For me, I find it hard to answer…before I go to an event I wonder how do I best describe what I do succinctly and easily?

Underneath this question lies so many stories we tell ourselves about our identity, our work and ultimately our self worth. We live in a world that wants to define our self worth by what it is that we do, who we work for, what our title is or how much we’re earning…

In today’s episode of the podcast I’m exploring three frames to support you in unraveling your self worth from what it is that you do, so that you can remember the core truths around who you are.

The motivation behind renaming the podcast to The Aligned Achiever last year came from a lifelong fascination I have of trying to understand what makes people tick.

Whilst there are things we can learn and do in the realm of productivity and efficiency to get things done, deep down we’re all motivated in different ways…and different strategies work for different people.

We’re individuals, we’re unique and applying cookie cutter formulas for “success” doesn’t work.

In today’s episode of the podcast I share with you how you can begin to navigate and build your career based on your Achievement Style and gain an insight into the way you are motivated and how you operate so that you can work with yourself instead of making things harder than they need to be.

In today’s episode of the podcast I share with you a 3 step framework to think about how to approach the question of “Am I in the right place?” because pretending like everything is OK and just grinding harder isn’t the best course of action.

Around this time of year when bonuses are being paid out it can be a natural opportunity to reflect on whether things are going well or if it’s time to move on to the next thing.

Today we’re diving into a step by step guide to planning your 2023 for more meaning and less burnout.

This is the last episode of The Aligned Achiever for 2022 and I wanted to make sure that you had something to work with as you go into the holiday period.

In this episode I’m guiding you through an A to Z of how you can break down your 2023 planning into tangible projects and goals, and how to make sure that you’re doing the things that matter and not burning yourself out.

I can’t believe we’re in December already! It always surprises me how fast time goes and how slowly it can go at the same time.

So often we are focused on setting new goals, and what we need to do to move forward, but to be honest, one of the most effective things we can do is reflect on what has been working and what hasn’t and use that as fuel to change things up if needed or hit the reset button.

In this episode, I share some of my reflections on what my top five life and career lessons have been from 2022 to support you with coming up with what some of your lessons might have been.

We all know that achieving for “achieving sake” isn’t fulfilling. It can keep us on the hamster-wheel of DOING and keep us feeling like our achievements are NEVER ENOUGH.

Cue: the desire for more meaning and purpose….

When we talk about meaning and purpose though, it can feel really fluffy and a bit ethereal.

But there are things that we can do to work more purpose into our projects and to say yes to initiatives that make us feel purposeful. Which begs the question….

What’s the difference between High Achievement versus Aligned Achievement?

In this episode I share the difference between these two types of achievement and why I want to support you in coming over to the aligned achiever camp, to bring more balance, fun and lightness to what you’re doing.
