Perfectionism Rewired episodes

  • “It’s easier if I just do it myself”

    “I just need to get through this quarter, THEN I'll....”

    “Explaining it takes too long + I really don’t have the time”

    “They rarely do it right anyways…”

    ^^^ these are SUPER common things I hear from high-achieving perfectionists who are used to doing it themselves and figuring it out alone. This works… until it doesn’t. Until you burnout, are pulling insane hours or get passed over for a promotion.

    It doesn’t have to be this way. Delegating and resourcing yourself are skills that are REALLY different than the incredible skills of “figuring it out and flying solo”.

    Go from resentful to resourceful knowing the No. 1 misconception perfectionist's believe about resourcing yourself and how to dissolve this back asswards thinking. 

    If you’re committed to being stronger, happier, braver, more resilient + want a revolutionary approach, I highly recommend joining  The Accelerator, 1-1 coaching for perfectionists who play to win.

  • The 1 Thing That Actually WORKS To REWIRE Perfectionism

    Ever decided to start working out everyday, do it for a week or two and then when life gets super busy, you're back to sloth status?  Or expected yourself to be relaxed just as soon as you finish power planning your week? Those are signs that your perfectionism is setting you up to fail.

    Consider this your WARNING: you'll be tempted by productivity culture to think perfectionism hacks like "how to stop being a perfectionist" and "overcoming perfectionism" work. That's bullshit.
