Description

Perfection is a myth—and chasing it affirms your false, core beliefs.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re not “doing healing right,” this message is for you. Your progress is valid. Your journey is yours. And every moment you choose healing over hiding, you’re rewriting your story and stepping more fully into the life you desire and deserve.

In this video, I dive into how the pursuit of perfection can keep us stuck, holding us back from healing, connection, and true growth.

💬 We'll talk about:

  • How perfectionism is rooted in trauma

  • The importance of celebrating progress along the healing journey

  • The power of small steps and daily shifts in returning to who you’ve always been

Join me as I share how embracing progress, not perfection, can change the way you view yourself and your journey.

Let’s break free from the fear of never being enough and celebrate every step forward. I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments!
