Episode notes

In this episode, I'm talking about the pressure we put on ourselves to be perfect that leads to overthinking, overworking, panic, procrastination - and sometimes stops us from taking even the smallest step forward.

Instead, let's focus on a growth mindset - a chance to shift our thinking, practise the idea that the goal isn't perfection (it doesn't exist), and develop a mindset that embraces learning (even from mistakes), progress, and daring to try (even when things get tricky).

Listen in for 5 tips to dial down perfectionism:

1. Challenge assumptions
2. Adopt a new mantra
3. Lower the bar
4. Prioritise self-care to enhance and
5. ...you'll have to wait and see 😉
