“I love this book! It’s for every woman who has allowed external perceptions of success to define her self-worth and, as a result, has lost track of the essence of who she is at her core. More importantly, it provides a blueprint for how you can simultaneously achieve both personal and career fulfillment by focusing on your core values.  Who doesn’t want that?”—Dr. Lois Frankel, author of Nice Girls Don’t Get the Corner Office

“Few people understand the complex psychological tax of ambition as well as Brooke Taylor. Healing the Success Wound is a masterclass in deconstructing why ‘making it’ never feels like enough. Taylor speaks directly to the person who has the accolades but lacks the peace. This book offers a brilliant, necessary framework for untethering your self-worth from your net worth. A vital read for anyone ready to experience the career fulfillment they’ve been searching for.”
 —Farnoosh Torabi, financial journalist and author of A Healthy State of Panic

Healing The Success Wound is an essential contribution to conversations about career burnout. Brooke goes beyond surface-level solutions (that don’t work in the long term) by incorporating deeper, essential inquiries into what is possible when we stop chasing the hungry ghosts of external approval and validation. Sometimes the smartest thing you can do is surrender. With grace, warmth, and wisdom, Brooke generously shows you how.”—Jenny Blake, author of Pivot and Free Time

Healing the Success Wound is a recalibration for anyone tired of the never-enough grind. Brooke Taylor teaches you how to stop defining worth by metric after metric and start uncovering the root of what drives you.”
 —Jenny Wood, New York Times bestselling author of Wild Courage

“Brooke Taylor rightly encourages women leaders to bring ALL of themselves in work, family, and life. This includes the deepest source of knowing, our spiritual awareness.”
 —Lisa Miller, PhD, bestselling author of The Awakened Brain and professor, Columbia University
