Ep 383: 7 Subtle Ways Fear of Judgement Shows Up In Business


Listen Later

Fear of judgement is one of the five signs of perfectionism, and this can show up in different ways. Today, I wanted to chat about the 7 hidden ways I see this coming up for myself and my clients in Perfectionists Getting Shit Done, so you have more awareness about fear of judgement and how this is showing up in your business.

People talk about perfectionism being fear of judgement or failure. But it's really a strategy to avoid the painful feeling of shame we think will come if we are judged by others. When our perfectionism handbrake is on, we are masters at judging ourselves and feeling like something must be wrong with us. It's a thought pattern our brains are used to, based on the beliefs we have about ourselves.

If you are experiencing fear of judgement in your business, know that there's nothing wrong with you. I share more in this episode, as well as why popular advice on this isn't helpful for perfectionists and practical things you can do instead.
