In this episode, I share some personal stories and chat about how we can unlearn old childhood triggers that keep us from being close. We talk about how to actually become friends with your parents as adults and why it’s worth the effort and so important to unlearn childhood triggers and habitual limits.

What if chasing perfection is keeping you from true happiness?

In this episode of Fulfilled, we dive deep into how perfectionism disguises deeper fears like rejection and failure — and how it robs us of joy, authenticity, and connection. I share personal experiences with perfectionism around diet, body image, and social media, plus powerful mindset shifts to help you embrace imperfection, celebrate progress, and find fulfillment in the messy, beautiful parts of life.

Learn why perfectionism is a trap & discover how letting go leads to deeper happiness and real growth.
