Description

Ever found yourself stuck chasing perfection and getting nowhere? You're not alone! In this candid and humorous episode, we open up about our own struggles with perfectionism, and how it nearly stopped this episode from happening!

We explore:

  • Why perfectionism holds us back and how to spot the signs.
  • Practical tips to break the perfection cycle: embracing 'good enough' and failing forward fast.
  • Real-life examples from juggling mishaps in the circus to aviation analogies about landing planes (hint: it's okay if it's not perfect, as long as it's safe!).
  • Personal stories: Michelle’s exciting news about her upcoming book launch, and Guy’s reflections on overcoming decades of perfection-driven procrastination.

Finally ditch the fear of judgment that's stopping your progress. Because let's face it, perfect is overrated!

Key takeaways:

  • Aim for progress, not perfection.
  • Break big goals into manageable steps.
  • Remember, every attempt teaches valuable lessons—even if it's not perfect.

Listen in and discover how embracing imperfection might just be your greatest superpower.
