A High Achiever’s Hidden Struggle: Agency, Sovereignty, Self-Authority

I want to share some insights about a hidden struggle that many high achievers face, one that I've personally grappled with throughout my life. It's a topic that is rarely discussed at its deepest level; it's incredibly vulnerable and lies at the core of our being. It profoundly impacts every aspect of our lives.
