About this listen
The achievement trap is when we fall prey to the illusion that we must achieve in order to prove our worth (which leaves us stressed out and disconnected from our purpose). In the achievement trap, we forget that everything we do is a choice, that we are unconditionally worthy, that we have nothing to prove, and that goals are games we choose to play.
In this groundbreaking new book The Achievement Trap, acclaimed life coach Brandilyn Tebo shares a proven step-by-step process to getting rid of that pesky sense of never doing enough and never being good enough. She guides you through exercises and thought experiments that she uses with her clients to heal the root of their stress, indecisiveness, franticness, insecurity, and self-doubt. Listening to this book is like having your own personal no-nonsense life coach guiding you to achieving truly meaningful goals from a good feeling place.
- Symptoms of being stuck in the achievement trap are
- Frequently feels stressed, uncertain and afraid of what people will think
- Needs approval from others before going for it
- Regularly panics about not getting enough done
- Constantly feels inadequate despite accomplishments
- Judges worth based on business
- Self-quantifies (looks to numbers: weight, salary, or Instagram followers to measure worth)

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 2,716
The relentless pursuit of high self-esteem has become a virtual religion - and a tyrannical one at that. Our ultracompetitive culture tells us we need to be constantly above average to feel good about ourselves, but there is always someone more attractive, successful, or intelligent than we are. And even when we do manage to grab hold of high self-esteem for a brief moment, we can't seem to keep it. Our sense of self-worth goes up and down like a ping-pong ball, rising and falling in lockstep with our latest success or failure.

Everyone loves a people-pleaser. They're always willing to help, to stay late, to fill in, to go along. But if you're one of them, you often end up feeling violated, ignored, disrespected, and disconnected from life and others. Silently enduring the ongoing and relentless invalidation of who you are and what you want will reliably wreak havoc on your health and the health of your relationships.

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.

After the success of her first book, The Goddess Revolution, which was all about fostering a healthier relationship with food and your body, Mel Wells helps you dive deeper into your food and body psychology. As a health coach, Mel believes that our unwanted eating habits could actually be pointing us in the direction of our soul's true calling and that our addictions reveal something much greater than cravings for caramel lattes - they reveal a need for love, connection, intimacy, and the feeling of being truly seen and understood, in spite of all our failures and flaws.

In Bad Advice, relationship expert Dr. Venus Nicolino - aka Dr. V - takes a blowtorch to the shrink-wrapped “feel good” BS that passes for self-help these days. Smart and irreverent, Dr. V fuses the brains and insight of a nerdy PhD with the heart of a doting Italian mother and the artful profanity of a Philly trucker. Dr. V’s signature combination of humor, hard science, and heart make Bad Advice an iconoclastic course correction like no other. Bad Advice is a fiercely sharp wake-up call that tackles some of self-help’s most damaging truisms.

A life changer
This book is ostensibly targeted to women, but I have to say that the content is as applicable to a male audience as it is to a female audience. The author provides detailed guidance and exercises that are practical and are easy to do. This book is so full of gems I will be coming back to it over and over. I have read many a book on self help and taming the inner voice. What the author is able to do is to make it clear and accessible where this inner dialog comes from, what purpose it serves, and how we can chose to understand it, accept it, and use if for achieving happiness. I could say a lot more, but what I will close with is that this book is a game changer for me.
