In today's episode, we delve into the fascinating topic of perfectionism and its impact on our lives. I'm your host, Kiara, and I'm excited to share with you the eight signs that indicate you might be caught in a perfectionist mindset.

Perfectionism is a belief system that many of us unconsciously adopt, driven by the desire to avoid blame, judgment, and shame. As renowned shame researcher Brene Brown explains, it convinces us that by appearing flawless and flawlessly executing our tasks, we can shield ourselves from the pain of criticism and rejection.

Throughout this episode, we'll navigate through these eight signs of perfectionism and explore how they manifest in our daily lives. By recognising these indicators, we can gain a deeper understanding of ourselves and begin to make positive changes.

Join me as I share real-life examples of how perfectionism affects our relationships, work, and personal well-being. By understanding the impact of people pleasing and overthinking, you'll gain valuable insights that can transform your perspective and ultimately change your life.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone who has struggled with perfectionism, felt trapped by its expectations, or yearned for a more authentic and fulfilling existence. Remember, perfectionism is merely a set of beliefs, and it does not define who you are as a whole person.

So grab a cup of your favorite beverage, find a cozy spot, and let's dive into the world of perfectionism, uncovering its hidden signs and discovering the path to liberation. Get ready to break free from the shackles of perfectionism and embrace a life filled with self-acceptance, growth, and joy.
