You’re Winning. So Why Are You Pushing Everyone Away?

Описание: You're finally winning - the job, the business, the recognition you've been working toward for YEARS. So why are you suddenly distant with your friends? Why are you hiding when you should be celebrating?

Let me show you the pattern nobody talks about.

In this episode, I'm breaking down one of my favorite shows ever - HBO's Insecure. Specifically, Issa Dee's final season when she FINALLY made it. Her block party was a massive success. She got invited to speak at Stanford. She built her own company from the ground up.

And instead of celebrating? She pulled away from Molly, her best friend who'd been there through EVERYTHING.

This isn't about being a bad friend. This is about what happens when you start winning but still feel like a fraud. When achievement doesn't kill the doubt - it makes it worse. When success makes you MORE afraid people will find out you don't belong.

I'm going to show you:
Why proof doesn't make you feel legitimate
How winning actually INCREASES self-doubt
Why you push away your support system when you need them most
The pattern between achievement and isolation

If you've ever gotten the win and felt MORE alone, more scared, more like you're about to be exposed - this one's for you.
