From Perfectionism to Happiness was exactly what I needed at this point in my life. I’ve always been someone who sets impossibly high standards for myself, and while it pushed me to achieve a lot, it also left me constantly anxious, exhausted, and never truly satisfied.

This book helped me understand the roots of my perfectionism and gave me real tools to start shifting my mindset. The sections on self-compassion and time management were especially eye-opening—I never realized how much pressure I was putting on myself until I started reading this.
What I loved most is how compassionate and practical the tone is. It’s not about fixing yourself; it’s about learning to accept yourself and find happiness in the process. I’m already seeing changes in how I manage my time, my relationships, and how I talk to myself.
If you’ve ever felt stuck in the cycle of “never good enough,” I highly recommend this book. It’s like having a supportive guide walk you gently toward peace, balance, and joy.
