In this episode we're talking about perfectionism. How do we recognize perfectionism? How does it show up on our journeys? How does it get in our way when we're putting our unique gifts and contributions out into the world?

My guest Joy Spencer illustrates what this has looked like on her journey and what she discovered along the way. Listen in as Joy shares her unique insights, experiences and perspective on how to work through perfectionism so that we can make progress and ultimately CREATE.

About My Guest:

Joy Spencer is a coach, speaker, and organizational development consultant working with professionals and leaders at all levels within organizations. Whether she's working with individual contributors or senior leaders, Joy leverages over 17 years of experience she gained while working to champion change in social justice movements, including those related to global access to essential medicines and consumer advocacy for online privacy. This work required a dogged commitment to not merely challenging the status quo, but to reimagining and working towards creating an ideal future. It is this commitment to creating that has shaped Joy's coaching philosophy and approach today.
