Use ACT to Strive Better with Dr. Diana Hill

How can you pursue meaningful goals without getting caught in stressful striving? How can you aim high without burning out? We all want to be successful and achieve our goals, but when our striving is driven by experiential avoidance, sometimes, our pursuits can lead to feeling dissatisfied, depleted, and burnout. In this episode, Diana shares a talk she gave to a group of high-achieving women attorneys of the Women’s Mentoring Circles Program. She explores signs of unhealthy striving and shows you how to use fierce self-compassion, values, and committed action to go from stressful striving to skillful striving. Go here for the handouts that go along with this talk.
