In this week’s 5-minute podcast, I talk about why perfectionism gets in the way of our Courage.

Perfectionism is well-intentioned to protect us, but it creates a type of black-and-white thinking that shuts down so many possibilities for our lives. It keeps us from exploring who we are, what we desire, how we might show up, and what we might do.

I talk about the role that your values can play in balancing out your perfectionism.

And I ask how you might lean into:

* Discovering rather than finding?

* Learning rather than knowing?

* Creating rather than producing?

And when you do these things—discovering, learning, creating—how might that connect you more easily to Courage?
