If you're a Highly Sensitive Person, perfectionism might be silently draining your energy, sabotaging your peace, and stalling your progress.

  • The subtle but critical difference between high standards and harmful self-pressure

  • Why your sensitivity is not the problem—and how to finally honor it without guilt or burnout
