Perfect Moment Syndrome (And How I’m Breaking It)

Do you ever create SUCH a detailed fantasy in your head about a moment that you end up comparing the real thing to the movie version you already created? Because hi. Same. This week I talk about my self-diagnosed “Perfect Moment Syndrome” - aka turning weddings, weekend trips, date nights, and random Tuesdays into cinematic experiences in my brain and then spiraling when one tiny thing doesn’t go according to plan. We’re getting into perfectionism, expectations, burnout, relationships, my one year wedding anniversary, and why some of the BEST moments in life happen when you stop trying so hard to make them perfect. Consider this your reminder (and mine) to stop living in “what it should’ve been” and start living in what it actually is. ALSO. Summer House reunion night is HERE and Chi Chi is coming back tomorrow because obviously we have thoughts. This is a public episode.
