Episode 3: The Achiever’s Paradox: Why Self-Compassion Fuels Reinvention
In this solo episode of Code 3: Life Reinvented, I explore a truth most high achievers avoid: the harder you are on yourself, the faster you burn out.
Drawing from my decades in corporate leadership—and two near-death wake-up calls—I share what I call The Achiever’s Paradox: that self-compassion, not self-criticism, is the true fuel for reinvention. Through stories, research, and practical exercises, I break down the three pillars of self-compassion — awareness, acceptance, and action — and show how this mindset shift builds resilience, courage, and lasting momentum.
If you’ve ever felt stuck in the cycle of “not enough,” this episode will help you lay the foundation for meaningful change, starting with kindness toward yourself.
