Breaking Free from the Trap of Overachievement | Keren Eldad (EP17)

This podcast is part of the Clear Intentions series of the show.

What if the success you worked so hard for is actually what’s holding you back? Keren Eldad (aka Coach Keren), a globally recognized executive coach, reveals the hidden costs of high performance — from burnout and perfectionism to chasing external validation. With empathy and sharp insight, she unpacks the "gilded cage" that traps achievers, showing how success can feel hollow without authenticity and purpose. Through candid stories and reflections, Keren offers a path to break free from overachievement and redefine success on your own terms. This episode is a wake-up call for anyone ready to trade the illusion of more for the freedom of enough.

About Keren |

Keren Eldad, also known as Coach Keren, is the guide high achievers never knew they needed—until they realize the relentless pursuit of “more” has left them unfulfilled. As the trusted coach to Olympic athletes, Hollywood stars, supermodels, Fortune 500 executives, and even Special Forces operatives, Keren helps those who make excellence look effortless reclaim their joy and sanity. Through her work with global powerhouses like Nike, Estée Lauder, and J.P. Morgan, as well as leaders who shape industries and inspire movements, Keren has seen it all: burnout, disillusionment, and the cost of a life defined solely by outward success.
