For many high-achieving professionals, success has come at a devastating cost. They have built impressive careers, earned the titles, and achieved the goals they were told would bring fulfillment. Yet behind the polished résumés and outward accomplishments, many are exhausted, emotionally disconnected, and unable to stop working — even when work is damaging their lives. Clinical psychologist Dr. Angélica Pérez-Litwin reveals why achievement never seems to be enough — and how to break the “Career Distress Response” cycle that traditional solutions fail to address. She has a PhD in Clinical Psychology from Fordham University, an MBA from Clemson University, and a BA from Columbia University. Her work has been featured by The Today Show, NPR, CNN, Forbes, PBS, and other national media outlets.
