Note sull'episodio

In this episode, I talk about perfectionism, fear, and the stories we tell ourselves that keep us stuck—especially when we’re trying to build something new. Recording from my car (because real life), I dig into why so many of us wait until things feel “ready” before we take action, and how that instinct is often just our brain trying to keep us safe from discomfort.

We talk about why perfectionism isn’t actually about high standards, how fear disguises itself as “being responsible,” and why waiting to feel confident or polished is usually the thing holding you back. If you’ve been sitting on an idea, a goal, a project, or a dream because it doesn’t feel ready yet, this episode is your reminder that momentum matters more than perfection—and that you’re allowed to start messy.
