If you find yourself overthinking, overdoing, or avoiding things because of perfectionism - this episode is for you. I dive into what’s really hiding underneath perfectionism, how it leads to overthinking, avoidance, and burnout, and most importantly—how to shift your thinking. I also share a story about a circus unit in my middle school gym class that has stuck with me to this day.

✔️ The hidden fears underneath perfectionism (and why they hold you back)

✔️ Why perfectionism and executive dysfunction create a cycle of overwhelm

✔️ The difference between striving for excellence vs. being trapped by perfectionism
