06: Perfectionism, Sneakers and the Lie of Getting it "Right"

from Banish the Lies: Outsmart Your Inner Critic · host Tcervoni

A pair of sneakers becomes an unexpected window into perfectionism, overthinking, and the quiet ways people drain their own energy trying to get things “just right.”In this episode, Tania shares a real, slightly humorous moment of noticing herself slip back into old perfectionistic habits, from second-guessing small purchases to replaying decisions long after they no longer matter. She reflects on how perfectionism often begins as a way to stay safe, how it can show up in both big life choices and everyday decisions, and why waiting for the “perfect” answer rarely brings peace.This conversation is an invitation to treat perfectionism with compassion, stop sweating the small stuff, and reclaim the time, energy, and freedom that overthinking quietly steals.Send me a message
