You’re a... Over Extending Achiever
You are driven to succeed, you invest a lot of time into work and productivity. You try to fit in time for self-care, time for family, and time to take care of miscellaneous tasks, but it leaves you feeling frequently overwhelmed and spread thin. You feel there are not enough hours in the day to take care of it all, yet you tirelessly pursue all aspects of your life with unwavering determination.As you see achievement in your life, you also feel the pressure to show up at all hours. Burnout looms. Sleep becomes increasingly more difficulty and weekends seems to get filled with all the obligations you couldn't take care of during the week. The pursuit of success had come at a great cost.Amidst the chaos, you long for balance. You deeply desire a life where work and personal fulfillment could coexist harmoniously. The pressure to pour into achievement, relationships, self-care, and hobbies becomes increasingly apparent. The relentless pursuit of perfection seems to consume your energy and leaving it more difficult to feel joy and connection.Overwhelm, the never-ending to-do lists, and competing priorities seem like a constant battle. The pressure to excel in every aspect of life leaves you feeling stretched thin and on the verge of collapse, yet you seem to muster enough energy to keep it all going.Deep in your heart, you dream of sustainable success, where work and personal life could intertwine seamlessly. You yearn for work-life integration, where you could be fully present in the at work and still have quality time to cherish with loved ones. You wish for productivity with purpose, where every task was meaningful and aligned with their values and goals.You also long for personal fulfillment. You want to find a sense of purpose beyond the accolades, a deep-rooted joy that would fill their days with meaning. You also yearn for resilience, the ability to bounce back from setbacks and adapt to change with grace and confidence. As the days turned into months, and the months turned into years, you hold out for that “one day” when things will settle down and you won't feel like you are running on fumes. Hey There!I'm Dr. Kelly Kessler. I'm a licensed physical therapist, transformation coach, host of the podcast Rewiring Health, the CEO and Founder of Optimal You Health and Wellness, LLC and a mom of two boys.I spent years of my life feeling like nothing I did was ever good enough and that I was never enough. I continually sought achievement and "perfection" in my life to fill the deep void within myself. In the pursuit of searching outside myself for my worth and grinding day in and day out to achieve, I was compromising myself. I neglected my own needs, suppressed my emotions, and continued to take care of everyone and everything besides myself. My physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing took a toll and I lived with an eating disorder, had chronic back pain for years, and dealt with panic attacks all stemming from the same limiting beliefs that plagued me. Though my own healing journey, I have transformed my life and no long live with these burdens. I live with the mindset of abundance and believing that everything I went through was divinely placed in my life for a reason so that I could guide others in their pursuit of fulfillment and freedom. I have healed by cultivating the power of my mind and my nervous system and I now help others do the same.
