Do You Struggle With Over-Syndrome™?

Do you ever feel like no matter how much you do, it’s never quite enough?


Over-Syndrome™ is what happens when perfectionism, people-pleasing, and pressure take over — leaving you exhausted, disconnected, and living by obligation instead of inspiration. This short quiz will help you discover whether you’re operating from the Pressured You or the Present You.

Take a quiet moment for yourself. Be still, breathe, and answer honestly.
Rate each statement on a scale of 1 (Rarely true for me) to 5 (Almost always true for me).
