Hello,

If you’ve ever felt like you have to be perfect to be taken seriously, you are not alone. In today’s episode of Choose Happy with Marie, we’re diving deep into one of the biggest blocks to confident leadership: perfectionism.

So many ambitious women struggle with negative self-talk, fear of failure, and the exhausting need to prove themselves. But here’s the truth: clarity—not perfection—is what makes you a powerful leader – professionally and in leading your personal life.

 In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

✨ How perfectionism quietly chips away at your energy and confidence ✨ The connection between negative self-talk and leadership doubt ✨ A mindset shift to break free from perfectionism’s grip ✨ A powerful affirmation to help you trust yourself and lead with clarity ✨ One actionable tip you can start using today to lead from self-assurance instead of pressure

💛 Whether you’re leading a team, a business, or your own life, this episode will help you release unrealistic expectations and step into your power—imperfectly and intentionally.

Listen now and take your next step toward confident, authentic leadership.

Cheers,

Marie
