Named one of the ten "Best New Management books of the year" by Thinkers50. Winner, Axiom Award for 2023 "Best Leadership Book."

Turn anxiety into a leadership superpower-from entrepreneur, mental health advocate, and top-rated podcaster Morra Aarons-Mele.

Anxiety disorders are the most common mental illnesses in the world. But in our workplaces, anxiety has been a hidden problem-there in plain sight but ignored. Until now.

The Anxious Achiever is a book with a mission: to normalize anxiety and leadership. As leadership expert and self-proclaimed anxious achiever Morra Aarons-Mele argues, anxiety is built into the very nature of leadership. It can-and should-be harnessed into a force for good.

Inspired by the popular podcast of the same name, The Anxious Achiever is filled with personal stories, research-based insights into mental health, and lots of practical advice. You'll learn how to:
Figure out your own anxiety profile so that you can recognize and avoid common thought traps and triggersConfront bad habits and unhealthy coping mechanismsResist perfectionism, manage social anxiety, and set boundaries to prevent burnoutDeal with feedback, criticism, and impostor syndromeLearn to love-and lead with-your complex brainModel-and communicate-healthy behavior as a leader

Whether you're experiencing anxiety for the first time or have been battling it for years, The Anxious Achiever will help you turn your stress and worries into a source of strength for yourself, your career, and the people you lead.
