Camela Allen is a fitness and functional nutrition coach who knows firsthand how confusing and frustrating midlife can feel when your old routines stop working. After entering surgical menopause, she had to relearn how to support her body. Now she helps other women do the same.

In this episode, Dr. Christine Li addresses a listener’s question about dealing with comparison and perfectionism, especially in demanding fields like the fashion industry. She explores how these protective habits often keep us stuck in self-doubt and shares practical, uplifting strategies to break free from the need to measure up to others or strive for unrealistic standards.

Dr. Li offers mindful tools to help you shift your focus away from fear, appreciate your own progress, and bring more joy and confidence into your work. Don’t miss her actionable advice, real-life analogies, and a free worksheet to help you put these lessons into practice.

Timestamps:

[00:04:09] – [00:05:22]
Dr. Li encourages listeners to use mindfulness to examine their own tendencies toward comparison and perfectionism.

[00:05:22] – [00:07:05]
She explains how our lives are shaped by our beliefs—if you believe comparison is necessary, you’ll keep doing it. She highlights the trap of relying on external validation.

[00:07:05] – [00:09:51]
Dr. Li notes that comparison is random and often leads to negative self-judgment. She urges listeners to escape this cycle and focus on their own work and growth.

[00:09:51] – [00:11:24]
She suggests starting each workday with self-affirmation and notes the importance of evaluating work based on progress, not perfection or comparison.

[00:11:24] – [00:13:08]
Perfectionism is distinguished from comparison—described as a “trap” that can make work feel suffocating.

[00:13:08] – [00:16:13]
Dr. Li explains the dangers of perfectionism: it limits creativity, wastes time, and sours your mood, ultimately leading to procrastination and avoidance.

[00:16:13] – [00:17:54]
She encourages listeners to let go of fear-driven comparison and perfectionism while maintaining healthy standards and genuine care for their work.

[00:17:54] – [00:18:47]
Dr. Li reassures listeners that external feedback isn’t a judgment of self-worth and invites them to embrace a new, lighter perspective.

[00:18:47] – [00:19:41]
Closing thoughts: a wish for listener success and well-being, encouragement to ask questions, and instructions for submitting them.
