The Illusion of Success (And Why You’re Already Enough)

In this episode, Alex and Tony explore the illusion of success and the beliefs society conditions us to chase. They discuss the difference between internal and external success, how comparison and achievement-based worth distort self-value, and why fulfillment often feels just out of reach. Through personal stories, reflections on identity, self-worth, and gratitude, they examine how success is often rooted in control, validation, and survival rather than presence and peace. The conversation invites listeners to slow down, question what they’re chasing, and reconnect with the truth that success isn’t something to earn — it’s something to recognize.
