Adam is a high-achieving professional.
When we met, he felt tired, his days were unstructured, and he often felt demotivated.
His biggest fear was that he wouldn’t be able to finalize a very important project in the next 6 months and would end up in serious burnout.
He wanted more balance and clarity, time for his hobbies, and to cultivate a sense of security and connection within himself, without feeling the need to rush all the time for something or someone.
During our exploration, Adam realized that he actually had increased clarity over his responsibilities and priorities.
So what was keeping him stuck?
His teenage years have been dominated by an educational model that encouraged values like: ‘Saying yes to others and helping them is your mission, putting yourself first is not a valuable option.’ This was Adam’s hidden agenda that led his life.
Even though he had a vision for a prominent career, he chose jobs where he had increased responsibility, there were no boundaries, and was often underpaid. Whenever faced with a leadership opportunity, he sabotaged the process so that his titles wouldn’t ‘officially’ reflect what his potential, capabilities, and work already reflected.
In his personal life, he rarely said ‘no’ to others, and would often run errands for others, while deprioritizing his plans.
His beliefs and actions were not aligned with his current values and relevant goals.
We created a strategy and Adam started consciously and consistently practicing a new mindset.
After our work together, Adam felt a greater sense of connecting to his needs and expectations from relationships, started to expose his strengths more frequently, while drawing boundaries in both his professional and personal life.
An increased understanding of his productivity patterns helped him build a healthier way of living and working.
