Nancy Ho on Redefining Success and Fostering Fulfillment

Episode 46

On this Episode of Fulfillment Equation

In my final guest episode of Season 2, I’m chatting with Fulfillment guru, Nancy Ho, who joins us all the way from Singapore! Nancy’s work centres on what she has labeled as the “Professional Paradox”, which is the odd duality in which many people who are talented and (by all traditional measures) “successful”, often struggle to find personal fulfillment. Why is this? How is it possible to “have it all” and still be depressed?

In our conversation, Nancy talks about the pitfalls of the “outside-in” mindset and the emptiness of chasing happiness highs. We dive into the importance of the “why” behind our dreams, taking an “I choose” approach, and being intentional about identifying what is important and scheduling it accordingly. Nancy gives us tips on how to redefine our own perceptions of success. She also shares some helpful wisdom around understanding your beliefs (e.g. expecting the world to be fair) and creating a healthy balance between what you can control and what you can’t. Finally, Nancy walks us through 5 specific strategies we can all use to guide us toward a stronger sense of fulfillment. I love how this episode feels fun and light-hearted on the surface, but the content is deep and hearty. I anticipate it will leave you with a lot to reflect on.

As usual, we finish the episode by building Nancy’s equation: 7C + 5e + 4m +7sp + 3d + 2ch
