See Full Show Notes here: https://growensemble.com/claire-booth-hanson-lok-lux-insights/ Claire Booth and Hanson Lok met working at a corporate company, but both realized the corporate culture was not for them. 10 years ago, when Claire founded Lux Insights, she knew that the first person to bring on board to work alongside her should be Hanson, and the rest is history. Lux went from a team of two working in Claire’s living room to a team of 13 working in two offices in Vancouver and Seattle. In this episode, Claire and Hanson discuss how Lux has grown over the course of a decade, its core values that drive their evolution, the strength of their company culture, and Claire’s new book, Achiever Fever Cure.
Claire Booth joins host Ethan Astaneh on the Wealth Exchange podcast. Claire is an entrepreneur, speaker, and author of new book, The Achiever Fever Cure: How I Learned to Stop Striving Myself Crazy. She is the founder and CEO of her business Lux Insights which is a boutique market research agency with offices in Vancouver and Seattle. Claire's book, The Achiever Fever Cure, speaks to a challenge that people of all walks of life face. "Achiever Fever" refers to the dark side of achieving. And that downside is when we start to tie our self-worth and our happiness to our achievements. This fever shows up in various ways — from a strong need to prove yourself, measuring your worth by accomplishments, and persistent self-criticism to being terrified of wasting time, difficulty with being in the present, and fearing you won't live up to your potential. In this episode, Claire shares the step-by-step to curing achiever fever, and walks through her own journey, and how she navigated out of it, ultimately leading to not only increased happiness and productivity, but doubling her company in size and reaching growth rates of 30%.
