452. Perfectionism vs Excellence: Why Waiting for 'Ready' Is Costing You Everything

from Into The Wild

Let me tell you about where to shift your focus and energy. I spent years believing that success requires perfection, and that we need to have it all figured out before taking a step. Here's the secret: you need to focus on excellence. I'm breaking down the differences between perfectionism and excellence today so you can start showing up. Taking those first steps can be uncomfortable, but that stretch is exactly where the growth happens. It's time to start making moves. In this episode, you will learn about: Why being "ready" is a lie, and how chasing perfection keeps you stuck. The many ways perfectionism is actually self-destructive and holds you back. What excellence looks like when it becomes a part of your life. How to build the practice of excellence so you can finally start showing up. How excellence redirects you towards continued improvement and capacity. What happens once you start taking imperfect action that might surprise you. What you can acknowledge right now that will help you focus on excellence.     Check out The Pink Skirt Project, happening July 9-10, 2026 in Kelowna, BC, Canada.   Want to get unstuck, feel more confident and surround yourself with women ready to help you climb?
