Deep Resilience

Why Feeling 'Enough' Feels So Hard

25 Mar 2025

Description

Why Feeling 'Enough' Feels So Hard In this episode, I explore why we feel so much pressure to be better than average—and why that pressure is actually making us unhappy. Our culture teaches us that to be valuable, we need to be exceptional. But the truth is, this drive to be special is one of our biggest blocks to true fulfilment. Fulfillment comes not from standing out, but from embracing the richness of ordinary life.I’ll share why this drive for significance is so hardwired into us, how research from psychologist Tim Kasser reveals that pursuing materialism and status doesn’t lead to happiness, and why the courage to be ordinary might be the key to feeling whole.Plus, you’ll learn practical steps to break free from the achievement trap—so you can continue to grow and succeed, but from a place of true confidence and self-worth rather than lack, fear and self-doubt.🎧 Ready to stop chasing and start feeling whole? Tune in now.Key Links:🔗 Melli O’Brien: https://melliobrien.com🎁 Free Deep Resilience Care Package: https://melliobrien.com/#deep-resilience-care-package📖 The Book – Deep Resilience: https://melliobrien.com/deep-resilience-book🚀 The Deep Resilience Experience – 30-Day Course: https://melliobrien.com/deep-resilience-experience
