Do you constantly fix tiny mistakes no one else notices? Struggle to say no, even when something doesn’t feel right? Perfectionism can feel like a high standard, but underneath, it often hides deep fears of rejection, failure, and not being enough.

In this episode, we’re uncovering the hidden link between perfectionism, self-criticism, and workaholism. We’ll explore how childhood patterns shape our obsession with control, why helping others can sometimes be a way to avoid our own pain, and how codependency keeps us trapped in toxic cycles. Plus, I’ll share a personal story about when I had to choose between keeping the peace and staying true to myself.

If perfectionism is making life harder than it needs to be, this episode is for you.
