Break Free from Perfectionism: Overcome Shame, Embrace Imperfection & Boost Self-Esteem

Show Notes:
In this eye-opening episode, we dive deep into how perfectionism isn’t a virtue—it’s a crutch that keeps us hiding our true selves and trapped in shame. Discover why striving for perfection in your body, home, career, relationships, and more can lead to an unrelenting inner critic and prevent you from experiencing authentic connection.

What You’ll Learn:

• The Hidden Shame of Perfectionism:
  Explore the #1 shame triggers for women and men—from not being “perfect” in every aspect to being perceived as incapable or weak. Understand how these societal pressures foster deep-rooted shame and isolation.
• The Mask We Wear:
  Learn why perfectionism creates a false public self that distances us from our true identity, and how this disconnect affects our self-esteem and relationships.
• Inspiration from “The Greatest Showman”:
  Relive the emotional journey of Keala Settle in “This is Me” and see how embracing your scars and vulnerabilities can set you free. Her powerful performance reminds us that authenticity is the key to self-acceptance. The Greatest Showman Clip 
• Breaking the Cycle:

Key Takeaways:
