You're Wildly Successful. So Why Do You Feel Trapped?
Your resume is impressive, but something fundamental feels off
You're successful by every external measure, and questioning everything internally
You're fully committed on the surface, and mentally somewhere else

This isn't burnout. This isn't weakness. This is the Success Trap. The skills that got you here keep you here. You're becoming the person achievement culture wanted. And by the time you reach this summit, you might realize it was never yours.
I'm Clif Mathews. For 25 years, I built a career that met all my goals: senior leader in M&A finance, checking every box, optimizing relentlessly. And feeling increasingly trapped by my own success.
I've navigated the path from achievement to alignment through systematic frameworks. I bring deep corporate fluency and an approach that creates emotional safety while challenging achievement culture itself.
