We’re taught that achievement leads to happiness—but time and again, research shows that striving doesn’t offer lasting fulfillment. 

It does, however, reliably offer burnout, stress, and disconnection—while cutting us off from the very things that make life feel meaningful: connection, presence, community, and awe.

Many achievement-oriented people feel stuck in lives that look good on paper, craving lives that actually feel good. This workshop helps you imagine a different way.

Redefining Success is a 2-hour interactive workshop designed to help you understand why you’ve outgrown the myth of achievement-as-fulfillment, and create a new personal definition of success⁠: one oriented around not how much you achieve, but how deeply your life aligns with your values and sense of meaning.

This workshop is not about becoming “anti-work,” blowing up your life, or rejecting success altogether. It’s about reconnecting with the parts of life—and the parts of you⁠—that got crowded out along the way. This session combines research-supported education; facilitated group discussion for learning and connection; and guided coaching exercises for clarity and next steps.

About the Workshop

Together, we’ll:

Make sense of why striving no longer feels fulfilling:

  • Explore why achievement often fails to produce lasting happiness, despite the powerful myth that it does

  • Reframe your disenchantment with striving not as laziness or weakness, but as natural responses to a system designed to keep you wanting

  • Explore your unmet emotional needs that achievement has been attempting to fill

  • Understand why you’ve outgrown the success-as-fulfillment story at this particular moment in your life⁠

  • Illuminate the common phases of the transition from identifying with success to identifying with self, bringing clarity and structure to the transition unfolding within you

Reorient around the things that really matter:

  • Be guided through thought-provoking frameworks and exercises designed to help you uncover what genuinely matters to you when you stop chasing achievement

  • Explore the four core sources from which humans derive a sense of meaning—and determine the unique combination that gives you the deepest sense of fulfillment

  • Clarify misalignments between your values and your current relationship with work and striving

  • Build a new, personal definition of success: one that centers not achievement, but aligning more deeply with your meaning, values, and contributions

  • Identify practical, personalized steps you can begin taking to bring your new definition of success to life

Attendees Are Saying:

“I was blown away to learn the science behind why achievement isn’t actually fulfilling. It made me feel less broken and less alone in my burnout! Doing the visioning exercises about meaning and values gave me a clear + simple compass to guide my next (hustle-free) chapter. So helpful. Thanks Hailey.”
— Sara R.

“Hailey leads from wisdom, personal experience, and integration. Redefining Success builds shared understanding, compassion, new insight, and vision for any season of life.”
— Amber

“I didn’t realize how much I needed a space where it was okay⁠ to say I don’t want to climb anymore! I spent 20 years in the rat race and it was horrible. I want a simpler life with a lot of art, nature, time with friends, and giving back. This session was the permission and encouragement I needed to begin creating it!”
— Paulina

In a world that celebrates hustle and striving, this workshop offers a supportive subculture of likeminded achievers divesting from success⁠-as-meaning. Community, camaraderie, and conversation are cornerstones of this workshop experience.
