The Strange Emptiness of “Having It All”

You did everything you were told would lead to happiness. The degrees. The practice. The success. The family. The house, the trips, the recognition. And yet—something’s… off.

This is more common than you think. I call it the post-checklist drift—that unsettling feeling of “What now?” after success. It’s not because you’re ungrateful. It’s because you’ve outgrown your old metric for meaning.

Try this: THE “NEXT TRUE THING” JOURNALING PROMPT

Each morning, ask:

? “What feels most true to me right now?”
? “What do I want more of—not because I should, but because I crave it?”

Start with what feels real. Realness is the doorway back to yourself.

Next time: a sensory reset for anxious achievers.

With you,
Isabelle.

Happiness Iz… Being Kind to Your Own Mind.
