Dr. Tooni
Accept THEN Achieve
This show's for High Achievers who dream of following their hearts but are tied down by self-doubt, practicalities, or family/society. Join nomad cartoonist & ex-Dr. Toni for tips, tools + tales of authentic achievement AFTER acceptance. Asian Tiger Parent & other high-pressure cultures demand that we achieve in order to finally feel acceptable. But they have it backwards; achieving through pushing & shaming WRECKS mental health & can only go so far. You are ok & worthy just as you are, & you don’t need to perform, people-please, prove, or be perfect. You BELONG already, unconditionally
