\nSo in this really inspiring
\nconversation we talk about how we can use achievement to buy enoughness, now
\nhow many of you can relate to this? How we hang our worth on achievements,
\nwhether that's how much money we earn, or getting a promotion, or getting likes
\non a social media post we really get into this and how to get away from doing
\nthis because it ultimately isn't very satisfying. We'll talk about how to
\novercome over achieving, and this is different to high achieving by the way.
\n
\n
\n
\nOverachieving is going much too far
\nthan really is possible for a human being to go, and Mandy's had her own
\nexperience of this, shares loads of stories about how she's experienced this
\nand overcome it and how she helps other people to as well. We'll talk about why
\nperfectionism can be used as an escape from anxiety, as a way to not have to
\nfeel anxious if we are constantly striving. If we are trying to control what
\nother people think of us by putting on an image of perfection, we're trying to
\nprotect ourselves from feeling anxiety and yet the process of trying to be
\nperfect actually creates a lot anxiety in itself.
