It’s only one word – but it packs a wallop…and can erode confidence, create anxiety, inhibit experimentation, block creativity and sap joy.  The evil word? 

Perfectionism! 

Though Jan would never be an advocate for mediocrity, she believes that our constant preoccupation and obsession with “perfect” gets in the way of our happiness, joy, learning and growth.   

Are you ready to join Jan and let go of “perfecto”’?  

In this episode you’ll:  

  • Learn the difference between using your high standards of excellence as inspiring drivers instead of debilitating punishers
  • Learn Jan’s Football Field Principle to clearly define your life “touchdowns”
  • Understand how your attachment to “perfect” negatively impacts you and those around you  
  • Reframe your vision of self from a limiting “fixed” one to a dynamic, growth paradigm that energizes your life journey
