Are you a high achiever who feels overwhelmed and frustrated? Do you want to maximize your time management and stop procrastinating? Do you feel like you're working all the time but not getting enough done? People might think you have it all together, but on the inside, you're critical of yourself and feel disappointed. You might also lack confidence and often find yourself second-guessing your decisions. I commonly work with high achievers and executives who want to improve their boundaries, feel more confident, and take their careers to the next level.
