The false promise of being a ‘goody goody’

In this talk, Flo investigates a pervasive phenomenon she’s coined ‘the curse of the overachieving school girl’. Drawing from personal experience and client examples, she shares how societal expectations and academic success often lead to disillusionment in the professional world. As a career coach, she helps people discard unrealistic expectations and embrace authentic career paths. Listen to Flo challenge conventional norms to forge fulfilling careers based on genuine aspirations rather than societal pressures!
