EP25: When Things Don't Go The Way You Think They Should | A Lesson in Perfectionism

Today’s Tuesday episode is a little different. No guest this week—just a raw, honest conversation about what happens when things don't go according to plan. I’m opening up about a technical glitch that forced a choice: scramble to maintain the illusion of "perfect," or lean into the messy truth of my reality. As someone in recovery from perfectionism—I’m choosing the latter.In this solo heart-to-heart, I’m sharing:The Perfectionism Trap: Why my need for control often gets in my own way and how I’m learning to notice it before it kicks in.The Weight of Perception: Staying grounded in who I know I am, even when others misinterpret my intentions or my work.The "Messy Unfolding": A reflection on trusting the process, giving myself grace, and knowing when to just order the pizza. If you’ve ever felt the exhaustion of trying to ‘fix’ how everyone sees you, this episode is a reminder to give yourself some much-needed grace.
