Perfectionism is something I see so many authors get caught up in – and it’s so easy to do so! When we take on a label, like perfectionist, it becomes a part of us. And once it’s a part of us, it is harder to shed. Today I’m talking with Alyssa Patmos, author and artist, about how perfectionism can hold us back. Alyssa used to identify as a perfectionist, and then a recovering perfectionist… but realized she had some pride around the identity. Now she doesn’t identify as a perfectionist and has no wish to be one.

Tune in and listen to Christine and Alyssa discuss:

• Overcoming perfection as an author, allowing you to write a whole lot more and a whole lot faster!


• How any type of book can be a transformational one, even fiction! 


• How powerful our brains are, and how the stories we tell ourselves about our identities can hold us back and/or make us shine


• How to identify your perfectionistic tendencies, and how you can break that cycle. 


• And so much more!

About Alyssa Patmos:

Alyssa Patmos is obsessed with how the stories we tell ourselves to determine what we create for ourselves. She writes, makes art, coaches inside her transformational membership, and trains people in the art of Neuro-Linguistic Programming. She helps people release their emotional baggage to unlock more of who they really are and deepen their relationship with joy. She believes all of the answers you need are inside you, you likely just need some guidance finding them and bringing them to the surface. She’s been featured in Thrive Global, Authority Magazine, and the Systems Saved Me Podcast. Oh, and she’s published in a kid’s poetry book for a contest she won in Middle School. When she’s not working, you can usually find her on a walk or in the kitchen whipping up a delicious dinner (with an empty peanut butter cup wrapper nearby). Who says dessert can’t come before dinner?
