In this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde unpacks how to set high standards without becoming rigid—so you can pursue sustainable excellence without sliding into hustle culture. When do your standards sharpen your work… and when do they quietly become fear in disguise? What’s the difference between "excellent" and "perfect"? How do you decide what deserves your 100% and what’s truly "good enough"? And what happens when you lead yourself (or others) with clarity and compassion?

Weekly Challenge: Choose one area where you're overly strict, apply a "90% is done" rule for the week, and notice what changes in your output, stress, and momentum. Then share your reflections—wins, discomfort, lessons—in our private WhatsApp Community, where listeners support each other and swap real-life systems for doing great work without burning out.
