Dr. Breese Annable is a licensed clinical psychologist with 20 years of experience. Her focus on high achievement and midlife development emerged during her own midlife transition—when the mastery-driven strategies that had built her career began driving burnout and stagnation. That experience, combined with extensive clinical work, became The Achievement Paradox—a framework examining how early success strategies can quietly constrain growth in midlife.
On stage, she combines psychological rigor with clear, accessible language—challenging conventional burnout narratives while keeping audiences oriented and engaged. Her insights have been featured in Forbes, Business Insider, and Well+Good.
She also maintains a boutique clinical practice focused on high-achieving women navigating midlife transitions.
