We all romanticize our “new life” when we set a goal. We imagine the healed, disciplined, unbothered version of ourselves who never slips, never spirals, never skips, and somehow turns effort into identity overnight. But real growth doesn’t look like flawless execution. It looks like being human, messing up sometimes, returning to yourself, and still choosing to keep going.
In this episode of Wellish, we’re breaking down why perfection based goal setting keeps you stuck, how unrealistic expectations destroy self trust, and what actually helps you build the life you said you wanted. You’ll learn how to create realistic systems, show up imperfectly, repair instead of restart, and build deep self-trust so your growth actually lasts.
If you’ve ever quit because you “messed up,” felt frustrated by your inconsistency, or believed you needed to be perfect to be successful this episode will help you breathe, regroup, and keep moving toward the life you want.
