What Happens After You Reach the Summit?

What happens after you've climbed your Everest? In this episode, Drs. Drew Brannon and Cory Shaffer explore the arrival fallacy—the belief that reaching a long-term goal will bring lasting fulfillment. Using Rory McIlroy's post-Masters win slump as a case study, they examine the emotional weight that can follow major achievements. From elite sports to everyday life, they discuss how to redefine success and build the resilience needed for the long haul.
