In this episode of Talking Sh*t, we’re unpacking the perfectionist trap - and why your all-or-nothing mindset might be the real reason you can’t stay consistent with your health goals. Host and dietitian Jana gets personal about the impossible standards women set for themselves, how perfectionism sneaks into your food choices, and what to do when slipping up spirals into a full-on “f*ck it” moment.

We get real about:
 🔁 Why you keep going all-in on diets—and burning out just as fast
 🍕 How food becomes the outlet when life feels like too much
 🧠 The toxic loop of shame, guilt, and self-sabotage (and how to break it)
 📋 Why rule-followers need to write their
own rules, not borrow someone else’s
💡 What sustainable structure actually looks like when you’re not trying to be perfect

If you’ve ever thought, “Why can I do everything else right, except food?”—this episode is for you.
You’re not lazy. You’re not broken. You’re just stuck in a cycle that was never designed for how
you operate.

So grab your drink, ditch the pressure, and let’s talk some sh*t about perfectionism.
