The Overachiever’s Reset: A Better Way to Succeed Without Losing Yourself

The Overachiever’s Reset is a wake-up call for high performers who have built success at the cost of themselves. In this powerful and practical leadership guide, Fleur Marks shares the story of her own collapse—from high-performing executive to life-threatening health crisis—and the blueprint that emerged from that reset. Blending neuroscience, behavioural science, and lived experience, Fleur reveals the hidden beliefs driving exhaustion and relentless overachievement. She introduces the essential mindset shifts required to move from high-cost performance to high-impact leadership—without shrinking ambition or lowering standards. This book is not about slowing down or fixing yourself. It’s about redefining success so it includes you. With grounded frameworks, real-world practices, and a tested reset blueprint, The Overachiever’s Reset equips leaders to perform at their highest level sustainably—building excellence without burnout and ambition without self-sacrifice.
