Ever been called a workaholic, or thought of yourself as one? The dictionary defines it as working "compulsively" for excessively long hours, but that word reveals something deeper—an irresistible urge that drives you to keep working. But the real question isn't whether you fit the definition; it's understanding where this compulsion comes from and why addressing it now could transform your future.Today we're exploring the real story behind workaholism: it's not about staying busy, it's about chasing worth through achievements. Psychologist Alfred Adler suggested these patterns create a "fictional final goal"—the belief that if we achieve enough, we'll finally find peace. We’ll challenge those thoughts by uncovering our core beliefs about working hard, with essential questions that include how the idea of taking time off makes you feel and whether you believe working harder makes you more worthwhile.We’ll also tackle how these beliefs are outdated narratives from childhood that need challenging. What happens when you loosen the reins? What fears come up? Can you embrace your value without constant output? If nothing changes, what does ten years down the road look like—still stuck in overdrive? I want you to know that your worth isn't tied to your workload, and this episode is your permission slip to free yourself from the cycle of endless proving and focus on what truly matters. So, what core belief about working hard are you ready to challenge today?LINKSSelf-Inquiry Questions for Busy Women PDFPrevious episode mentioned: #50 - The ‘shadow’ side that drives high-performing womenDouble Your Energy Masterclass:https://peak-revival.captivate.fm/yt-masterclassWebsite: www.vesnahrsto.com Mentioned in this episode:Website
