Breaking Free from the Grind
Ep #151 - Stress-Free 2026 Career Resolutions for Overachievers
What if your 2026 career resolutions didn’t require more hustle—just better alignment? And what if your biggest “level up” this year comes from what you eliminate, not what you add?
In this episode you’ll learn:
- Why overachievers set stressful goals (vacuum goals, broken-foundation goals, and “do everything” goals) and how to avoid all three traps.
- How to build stress-free career resolutions by starting with identity + values outside of work, then ruthlessly eliminating what’s not working.
- A simple 3-step framework to choose one needle-moving career goal, define your “why,” and set a realistic “by when” to stay committed without burnout.
