Perfectionism

from Not That Girl Anymore

We’re taught to chase perfection—to get it right, to be good, to hold it together. But perfection is rarely about excellence. More often, it’s about fear: fear of being seen, fear of being judged, fear of being too much or not enough. In this conversation, we explore how perfectionism forms, how it shows up in our work, parenting, relationships, and self-image, and what it costs us emotionally and spiritually.This episode is an invitation to soften.To release the pressure to perform.To return to your humanity.To remember, you don’t need to earn your right to exist.We talk about:How perfectionism forms in childhoodWhy “being perfect” is a survival pattern, not a personality traitThe emotional exhaustion of constantly managing how others see youWhat happens in the body when we begin to let perfection goThe freedom found in being seen as we truly areIf you’ve ever felt like you’re holding your breath in your own life, this conversation is your reminder:You are allowed to exhale.
