E100: The Success Slump: Staying Brave after Your Reach Your Career Goal

Welcome to the 100th episode! 
There was a time when publishing 100 episodes seemed like a massive goal. Yet, here we are: celebrating…and also getting ready for a success slump. 
What is a success slump? 
That emotional release and dip after you’ve accomplished a goal. It shows up as:
  • Questions like “is this really it?” and “what now?”
  • Distancing yourself from the results you created “it wasn’t that hard”
  • Feeling exhausted and sleeping more 
  • Feeling confused, exposed, or anxious 
 
I share a series of goals my clients achieved in Q4 2022 and how they all experienced a success slump.
A success slump is a normal part of being a human, so let’s normalize it and prepare for it. In this episode, I teach you how to move with ease through one and how to still enjoy your new results. 
Thanks so much for being here and celebrating 100 episodes with me!
