Shameless Leadership

331: The 3 BIG Mistakes You're Making Right Now


Listen Later

I talk a *lot* about perfectionism and how it shows up for me. The more I talk about it the more I hear you all saying, “ME TOO!!!” 

If you tend to be a perfectionist and or high achiever and/or Type A kinda gal, this episode will speak to you. It might even scream at you…

There are three BIG mistakes that I see perfectionist/high achiever/Type A women make over and over. These are mistakes that we make even when we think we’ve overcome our perfectionism. I mean, let’s be honest, we’re all works in progress and old habits DIE HARD. 

Here are the 3 BIG mistakes I see a lot of us (yep, including me) make over and over:

  1. We’re constantly waiting for the “right time” to take action in our life
  2. We listen to fear instead of embracing resistance
  3. We don’t give ourselves space & grace we truly need to evolve
  4. If any of this speaks to you - this episode is a must listen. Make sure to let me know how this conversation landed for you. I always love hearing from you!
