If These Heels Could Talk


Jan 19, 2022

Perfect is a limiting belief:  a subjective state of being that is not only impossible but also damaging. No one is perfect and nothing is perfect. But our belief that we can be if we only try hard enough damages our relationships with others and our self-worth.

 

The double-edged sword of perfectionism is likely rearing in your mind right now, “But that doesn’t mean I shouldn’t try! Working toward a goal is important!” Working toward goals is important. But goals and perfection are not the same thing. We can work to make something the best we can, but if we’re always judging our best by a literal impossible standard, we’re always going to fall short. And what do we miss in the meantime?

 

Listen as JoyGenea and Michelle embrace imperfection and talk about silencing the judgy, critical Stickler in ourselves so we can show up with flexibility and strive toward our goals in peace.
