Ready to ditch perfectionism and embrace action? In this episode, Alex and Carol get real about a mindset that holds so many leaders back—perfectionism.

🔑 What We’re Talking About Today:
- Why perfectionism is actually your brain’s sneaky way of keeping you “safe.”
- The childhood beliefs driving your need for approval and how they still show up today.
- Practical hacks to break free, including Alex’s life-saving timer technique and Carol’s “Done is better than perfect” mantra.
- How shifting your focus from external approval to your internal values can supercharge your confidence and leadership.
