In this podcast episode, host Natalie Guevara delves into the battle between consistency and perfectionism, a struggle many of us face, especially when dealing with health issues like Hashimoto's or PCOS. Natalie emphasizes that perfectionism often holds us back from making progress, as it sets impossibly high standards.
Our brains tend to operate in all-or-nothing modes, making it challenging to embrace gradual change. Natalie likens stepping out of your comfort zone to reaching out of a window, where small steps are crucial. She stresses that change happens in the gray area between perfection and giving up, and that it's essential to acknowledge and trust our ability to keep promises to ourselves.
Rather than seeking perfection, Natalie encourages listeners to celebrate small victories and focus on progress, even when conditions are less than ideal. She reminds us that our lifestyles are both the problem and the solution, and that conditions like Hashimoto's and PCOS don't negate the power of lifestyle changes.
Ultimately, Natalie's message is clear: let go of perfectionism, embrace consistency, and watch how it transforms your life. Progress, not perfection, is the key to personal growth and success.
