In this episode, Dr. Seena Haines, director for professional well-being and belonging in the Pharmacy department, explores the concept of success, emphasizing the importance of aligning personal core values with well-being and self-compassion. Dr. Haines stresses the negative impact of the success spiral, which leads people to constantly measure themselves against external standards, and the need to shift toward a more grounded, compassionate and peaceful approach to life and well-being. By stepping out of this spiral and focusing on values, play and well-being, she says, people can break free from the pursuit of conventional success metrics and find greater contentment.
