Fuel Your Confidence

Your High Standards Are Holding You Back


Listen Later

Perfectionism wears a sneaky disguise. It pretends to be ambition, excellence, and care... but beneath the surface, it’s really just fear.

In this solo episode of Fuel Your Confidence, I share the raw truth about how perfectionism hijacked my life and stalled my dreams - including the time I delayed releasing my first book for an entire year (and kept 700 copies hidden in boxes).

You’ll learn the difference between preparation and procrastination and how to spot the fear that’s wearing high standards.... as a mask. If you’ve ever said “It’s just not ready yet” for the 12th time, then this one’s for you.

Here's what we cover this week:

  • Perfectionism is just fear in disguise.
  • A personal story: How a fear of typos kept my first book hidden for a year.
  • Why perfectionism feels productive but secretly blocks momentum.
  • The mental and emotional cost of striving for a flawless outcome.
  • How to shift from perfectionism to confidence.
  • The danger of chasing an unattainable “perfect” that doesn’t exist.
  • Powerful mindset reframes to help you start messy and grow in motion.
  • An invitation to give your work room to breathe.
