Are you actually struggling with time management—or is perfectionism quietly keeping you stuck and overwhelmed?

If you constantly feel busy but still struggle to finish things, second-guess your work, or delay putting yourself out there, this episode will help you understand why. Perfectionism often disguises itself as productivity, planning, or “high standards,” but underneath it is fear that keeps you from taking meaningful action.

When you listen, you'll gain:

• A clear understanding of what perfectionism really is (and why it’s not about excellence)
• Insight into how fear-driven perfectionism shows up as procrastination, overworking, or decision fatigue
• A simple but powerful way to identify the fear beneath your perfectionism so you can finally move forward

Press play to learn how taking imperfect, messy action can free you from overwhelm and help you build confidence by actually moving forward.
