226. When people put you on a pedestal... (the cost of being a high achiever)
About this episode
The episode discusses the challenges faced by high achievers in relationships where they are placed on a pedestal and the importance of mutual support.
If you’re a high achiever, you may be dealing with what I call pedestal relationships — where people place you on a pedestal, expect you to always have it together, and then don’t show up for you the same way they show up for others. In this episode I share how I realized this was happening in my life, the signs I ignored at first, and the changes I’m making so my relationships aren’t built on me being the “strong one” all the time.
