Society tells us that smart, ambitious people can't be deeply depressed. My personal and professional experience proves this harmful myth couldn't be further from the truth.

Living at the intersection of severe depression, high cognitive ability, and strong ambition creates a uniquely challenging experience. We oscillate between periods of incredible achievement and devastating lows, never quite fitting in with either our high-functioning or struggling peers.

In this video, I show you how to break free from the exhausting cycle of chasing achievement as a path to happiness. I'll guide you through building an unshakeable foundation that can weather any storm your mind creates.
