#3 The Achievement Paradox
EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS
- Uncover how high-achieving students, especially girls with ADHD or math anxiety, can find their usual success strategies backfiring when it comes to mathematics
- Learn why "just practice more" advice fails these students, and how perfectionism becomes a barrier rather than an asset
- Explore how the Achievement Paradox affects future career choices, with 70% of modern jobs requiring quantitative skills
- Understand how neuroscience explains the connection between perfectionism, anxiety, and math performance in high-achieving students
- Discover why traditional coping mechanisms that work in other subjects often fall apart when facing mathematical challenges
