In this episode of The Mindful Journey, host Sana sits down with Sara Nativi, a clinical hypnotherapist and rapid transformational therapist, to explore the hidden costs of perfectionism and performance anxiety. Once a professional ballet dancer driven by external validation and silent pressure, Sara opens up about her personal journey through burnout, anxiety, and the relentless pursuit of perfection. She shares how she broke free from survival mode, embraced true self-worth, and now helps high achievers do the same through subconscious rewiring and neuroscience-based therapy.
About the Guest: Sara Nativi is a clinical hypnotherapist and rapid transformational therapist who works with high-achieving professionals, creatives, and performers struggling with anxiety, self-doubt, and burnout. Drawing from her own background as a professional ballet dancer, Sara combines personal experience with neuroscience and subconscious healing to help clients untangle anxiety and reclaim calm confidence.
Key Takeaways:
-
High achievement often masks silent struggles with anxiety and self-worth.
-
Perfectionism creates an endless cycle without a true finish line.
-
True transformation starts when we slow down, rest, and detach from constant pressure.
-
Subconscious beliefs formed in childhood can fuel lifelong performance anxiety.
