The success women were promised is often the very thing holding them back. The Success Lie shows how to build a life and career that actually fit.

They say you can have it all--but at what cost?

In The Success Lie, leadership expert and growth strategist Chantell Preston challenges the deeply ingrained beliefs that tell us success means doing more, earning more, sacrificing more--until there's nothing left of us. Through candid storytelling, research-backed insight, and practical reflection, Preston exposes the cultural lies that keep high-achieving women stuck in cycles of overperformance, guilt, and self-doubt.

From "you can have it all" to "your worth is tied to your productivity," Preston dismantles the narratives that shape our choices and teaches us how to reframe those stories to redefine what success means to each of us. Drawing from her own journey across global leadership roles, motherhood, and burnout, she offers a compassionate but clear-eyed guide to building a rich and satisfying life--without walking away from ambition, purpose, or impact.

In The Success Lie, readers will learn how to:
  • Identify the 9 lies shaping their definition of success
  • Reframe achievement without sacrificing health, joy, or relationships
  • Set boundaries that protect energy and purpose
  • Integrate career, family, and personal growth without constant guilt
  • Build confidence rooted in self-trust--not external validation

This is not a book about quitting your career or lowering your standards. It's about alignment--learning to make decisions and take actions that reflect who you are now, not who you were told to be.

Grounded, honest, and deeply relatable, The Success Lie is a call to stop chasing someone else's version of an extraordinary life--and start building yours.

Let's do this!
