Episode Synopsis

Send us a textIn this conversation, Dr. Cliff Redford discusses the complexities of fulfillment and the phenomenon of post-achievement depression, often referred to as arrival fallacy. He reflects on the experiences of professional athletes, particularly golfer Scotty Scheffler, who, despite achieving great success, questions the meaning and satisfaction derived from these accomplishments. The discussion delves into the importance of setting goals, the journey towards achieving them, and the need for personal growth and fulfillment beyond mere achievements. The conversation emphasizes the significance of enjoying the process and finding joy in life outside of professional success.For those who want to reach Sarah Lo, Registered Psychotherapist, MA, you can find her at https://www.psychologytoday.com/ca/therapists/sarah-lo-etobicoke-on/1269356First, if you haven't watched my film and live in Canada (or have one of those VPN things), you can watch it here: https://youtu.be/oMUx3yuyznc?si=oagpg7bGnpbuyXlJ Be sure to follow me on Instagram @drcliffworldwidevet.com and on Twitter at @drcliff_vetListener questions, episode suggestions, or if you have a good idea for a guest, email me at [email protected] information can be found at drcliff.ca Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
