Ep.54 Perfectionism Is Holding You Back:...

GRACE BEVERLEY
About this episode

“You have this false perception that perfectionism is good for your work, but realistically it’s actually harming your work in the long term” 💅🏼


In this week's solo ep, we're talking all about perfectionism - in work, relationships and life in general, with the aim to reframe our mindset away from perfectionism being the goal, and to get to the bottom of how we achieve highly without trying to be a perfectionist!


In this episode

- How do I hire my first employee so I can grow my business?

- I'm a perfectionist at work and it's burning me out.

- How do I tackle self doubt?

- I'm a perfectionist when dating.

- I can't make decisions because I'm scared of failure
