This week, the honest conversation that I’ve been having with myself revolves around my reluctance to let things fall where they may. In all honesty, I’m no stranger to reflecting on how I’ve let the allure of perfectionism paralyze progress. But I’ve stumbled upon a newfound realization by scratching an itch I’d been ignoring for quite some time.
In Ep. 054, I explore how:
- My anxiety has pointed out the perfectionism that’s been lurking beneath the surface
- Motherhood invites me to lean into the discomfort of NOT having everything in its place
- Aiming to have it all together, all the time tempts us into being dishonest
Press play to tune in.
I often find it incredibly difficult to enjoy the moment because I’m constantly preoccupied with wanting everything to be in its place. But what solace lies in believing the illusion that it’s possible to achieve a state where everything, everywhere is always where it “should” be?
