Summary

How can you stop putting your worth and value into your achievements? Jennifer Wallace, award-winning journalist, New York Times bestselling author, and cofounder of The Mattering Movement wanted to be the perfect mom to her kids - and then found out how her need for perfectionism could impact them. It sent her into an exploration of the relationship between high achievers, anxiety, stress, depression, and how to avoid passing that onto the next generation. She shares how to differentiate between healthy achievement and toxic achievement, how to make space for the meaningful relationships in your life, what small step you can take that'll make a big difference in someone else's life, and how to know you're always enough. - Join Cathy's Quilt Membership cathyheller.com/quilt - Get your copy of Jennifer's book Never Enough: When Achievement Culture Becomes Toxic—And What We Can Do About It https://www.jenniferbwallace.com/ - Follow Jennifer on Instagram @jenniferbrehenywallace - The Mattering Movement https://www.thematteringmovement.com/
