Unstriving: 12 Lessons on Authentic Success From a Recovering Overachiever

Caleb Campbell

"A history-making NFL player and West Point graduate, Caleb Campbell seemed to have it all-national TV moments, a spotless résumé, and the admiration that comes with wearing both a uniform and a jersey. Off the field, though, he was unraveling, numbing his pain with pills and powder while trying to sustain his public image. When his body and spirit finally hit a breaking point, he realized the truth so many high performers eventually face: success without alignment to your true self will never feel like enough. Now, Campbell shares the raw story of walking away from a celebrated life to build one that actually felt like his. With the same discipline that carried him through the military and the NFL-and a new commitment to honesty, compassion, and inner work-he offers a powerful blueprint for anyone who's burned out from doing all the things they're "supposed" to do and still wondering, Is this really it?"-- Provided by publisher.
