#90: To My Perfectionists

Mary Jelkovsky
About this episode

This short solo episode is a message to my fellow perfectionists. If you‘ve ever felt like perfectionism is holding you back, listen to this to break free from that.

You will learn a language trick that will help reframe your mindset about being ”perfect” so that you can finally let go of all those toxic pressures and expectations.

Remember: perfect doesn‘t exist, so don‘t strive to be perfect. Instead, allow others to be INSPIRED by the way you embrace your imperfections.
