Description

Have you ever caught yourself rewriting an email three times because it didn't sound perfect yet?

Or maybe you've spent hours fine-tuning a report, even though it was already good enough?

Or you finally finish something... but you still can't stop thinking about whether you should have done more?

If any of that sounds familiar, you're not alone—and you're exactly who I had in mind when I created this week's podcast episode.

The truth is, perfectionism feels like it should help you do better work. But most of the time, it just steals your time, drains your energy, and leaves you feeling behind—no matter how hard you work.

This episode is especially for you if:

• You struggle to feel "done" with your work, even after you've finished it
   
• You notice yourself double- and triple-checking things out of habit
   
• You often spend way more time on tasks than you planned to
   
• You feel guilty when you stop working—even if you've already done a lot
   
• You know perfectionism is holding you back, but you're not sure how to break the cycle

I'll also be sharing a personal story about how I learned to let go of perfectionism (after years of thinking it was my secret weapon) and how that shift made a huge difference—not just in my work, but in my life.

I can't wait for you to hear this one. It's a game-changer if you've been feeling stuck in "never enough" mode.

And thank you for being a part of this community. Let's all learn to have easier, and more successful balanced accounting careers.
