Why Straight-A Kids Struggle as Adults
from The Nope Coach
Perfectionism keeping you stuck? You're not alone, friend. In this solo episode, Suzanne gets real about the straight-A-student conditioning that has so many of us terrified to try unless we know we'll be good at it. Whether it's launching a business, starting a podcast, or putting yourself out there creatively, this episode is a love letter to your inner overachiever, with a swift kick to the backside. Done is better than perfect. B-minus work gets results, and the truth is, you'll never get better at something you never start. In this short & mighty episode, Suzanne covers: The curse of the straight-A student in adult life Why aiming for A+ is actually sabotaging your progress How "bad" work is the only path to great work Why editing is overrated and messy is meaningful Second-hand embarrassment = growth!
