About this listen

🔥 You got too good… and now you’re trapped.

This episode dives into the dark side of success — when your greatness becomes your cage. We’re talking about the curse of being good — the invisible prison where competence kills growth.

Why do the best people get stuck doing the same thing forever? Why does “being irreplaceable” start to feel like punishment instead of pride? And how do you break out when everyone around you keeps saying, “You’re the only one who can do it.”

🎙️ In this brutally honest episode, we unpack:

The hidden trap of mastery nobody warns you about

How “reliability” quietly chains you to repetition

The emotional burnout behind being “the go-to person”

Why the system rewards excellence — but punishes evolution

💥 This isn’t about quitting — it’s about freedom from your own success.
Because if you’re not careful, what you’re best at can become your prison.
