SummaryIn this episode, Michele Magner explores the concept of self-identity through the lens of how she wants to show up day to day and the kind of woman she wants to become.

Max Browne is back on Real Pod for a much-needed men's mental health convo.

Have you ever noticed a behavior or pattern that you know you should change, but you just can't seem to? Whether it's scrolling aimlessly on your phone or saying yes to commitments you don't want, that moment of recognition is where change begins. But what if that moment of awareness, even without immediate change, is more powerful than you think?   In this episode, I revisit one of the foundational concepts in behavior change: awareness precedes change. While this idea was introduced in an early episode, my understanding has evolved significantly. You'll learn practical ways to expand your awareness beyond just cognitive observation, including a simple practice you can use anytime.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://habitsonpurpose.com/178

What if perfectionism is the very thing stopping you from making progress? Perfectionism is one of the biggest things that can keep you from moving forward, even when you're doing your best. It's that nagging feeling that you need to do more, do it better, or get everything just right before you can take action. But what if trying to be perfect is actually holding you back?   In this episode, I'll explore how perfectionism can keep you stuck and prevent you from moving forward. We'll dive into how to recognise perfectionist tendencies and the impact they have, while also showing you how embracing a “good enough” mindset can free you up to make real progress.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://maisiehill.com/234

People pleasing is one of the most adaptively constrained behaviors we engage in as human beings. It is a highly developed skill, yet most people do it to excess and much disappointment. Stop Being a People Pleaser is a look at one of the most common expression of our subpersonalities, and one of what many people consider next to perfectionism a dysfunctional behavior. Perfectionism is a version of people pleasing. Seeking external validation and affirmation.The goal is to become inner directed. To disengage from the manipulative and dishonest practice of people pleasing.ANNOUNCING: THE LIMITLESS EXPERIENCEDaniel D'Neuville is a peak performance coach, spiritual teacher, and master life and business coach.

She's a physical therapist, author, and sobriety advocate. Harte opens up about rebuilding her life after addiction and navigating a traumatic childhood. Through it all, she discovered the healing power of vulnerability and forgiveness, ultimately learning to rewire her brain and change her story.Her picture-perfect high school existence masked unbearable pain, leading to a soul-shaking drug overdose. While navigating the challenges of sobriety in the midst of a crumbling marriage and painful loss, Samantha found herself at rock bottom. What came next was a radical reworking of her inner life and the birth of a new identity — one grounded in compassionate curiosity, revolutionary responsibility, and finally, self-forgiveness.This conversation is a masterclass in what it means to confront your truths, rewire your mind, and write a new story — no matter how broken the past may seem.How Do We Take Pain and Turn It Into Something Positive, Even Transformative?Dr. Harte explains why healing begins with self-forgiveness — and how shame, silence, and perfectionism keep us stuck in destructive loops.

SENSITIVITY IS NOTHING TO APOLOGIZE FOR; IT'S HOW YOU'RE WIRED It's okay to have hard times. It's okay to feel lonely. It's okay to feel lonely when you're with a bunch of people. It's okay to not be okay. It's okay to be happy, joyful, and stimmy. It's okay to be quiet and reserved. It's okay to want to be out and doing things. It's okay to want to be in your bed, in your home where it's cozy and comfy. There is no way that you can screw up being who you are because who you are is really okay.

Where does the scarcity mindset, imposter syndrome, and loss aversion come from? Welcome to a mindset masterclass from history. Learn if the very instincts that kept humanity alive are now keeping you from truly living. For 290,000 years, we survived by playing it safe, following the tribe, and hoarding resources. These weren't character flaws—they were survival strategies in a world where innovation could mean death. The scarcity mindset that once threatened our ancestors' survival now threatens our potential. The tribal conformity that once protected us now prevents breakthrough thinking. The focused attention that once saved lives now creates cognitive tunnels.

Come to a Dehoarding Accountability Zoom Session: http://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/ticket Subscribe to the podcast: https://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/subscribe Podcast show notes, links and transcript: http://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/  Today I'm talking about why letting yourself make mistakes - like running out of everyday items or doing things imperfectly - can actually help if you're struggling with hoarding. From challenging perfectionism to rethinking the fear of scarcity, I'll share how embracing messiness can move us forward. Plus, I'll offer practical ideas for easing those fears and making progress, one small, imperfect step at a time. Announcement of new dates for Dehoarding Accountability Zoom Sessions. Aimed at connecting people who hoard for conversation and simultaneous decluttering. Details on how to get tickets and availability through several upcoming months. The Value of Making Mistakes Challenging the idea of perfection and fear of making mistakes. Proposing the benefits of allowing oneself to: Make more mistakes. Run out of things occasionally. Do things imperfectly or “half-arsed.” Identifying how fear of mistakes and perfectionism can keep people stuck in hoarding behaviours. Perfectionism and Fear of Scarcity Perfectionism: Fear of making the “wrong” decision leads to inaction or keeping everything. Uncertainty about the future and anxiety about discarding items. All-or-nothing thinking: If it can't be done perfectly, it's not worth starting. Personal reflection on the struggle with perfectionist tendencies. Fear of Scarcity: “Keep it just in case” mentality. Stemming from past experiences of poverty or deprivation. How personal history and upbringing foster scarcity-based behaviours. Recognition that such fears can be irrational and still hold significant power. How this fear leads to over-acquisition and reluctance to discard. Addressing Perfectionism and Scarcity (Mindset Shifts) Techniques to gently challenge perfectionism and scarcity fears. Reframing mistakes as learning opportunities rather than failures. Allowing for experimentation as a method of progress. Embracing Mistakes as a Path Forward Learning from mistakes as a source of growth and behaviour change. Normalising occasional regrets over discarding or not acquiring something. Comparing the cost of keeping everything versus the occasional “mistake.” Observing emotional responses to mistakes as a way to learn and build decision-making confidence. Encouragement to start with low-risk decisions and build up “dehoarding muscle” gradually. Allowing Things to be Done Imperfectly Encouragement to “do things badly” rather than waiting for perfect execution. “Done is better than perfect” as a motivating principle. The danger of all-or-nothing thinking leading to perpetual inaction. Practical examples of doing small tasks imperfectly: Tackling a small part of a larger problem (e.g., half a shelf). Donating a partial bag of items. Taking any step forward, even imperfect ones, counts as progress. Allowing Yourself to Run Out of Things Creative and resourceful solutions arise when supplies run low. Examples from daily life (cooking, art journalling) where scarcity breeds creativity. Differentiates between essential items and those where running out is an acceptable risk. Suggestions for consciously assessing what's truly necessary to keep in stock. Experimental Mindset: Treating Dehoarding as Data Collection Each decision - successful or not - provides valuable data for future choices. Building confidence and capability for bigger, more challenging decluttering decisions over time. Summary and Reinforcement of Key Points Allow for imperfection, mistakes, and occasional scarcity. Importance of starting with manageable steps and celebrating imperfect progress. “Done is better than perfect”—taking action, however small, is crucial.

We are just a hologram projection of the patterns we run from our past until we stand up and change them. Topics Discussed Functional vs. Western medicine thyroid ranges How perfectionism and suppressed expression block healing Gut healing as the foundation of hormonal balance Misleading food sensitivity tests Energetics of autoimmune fertility challenges Releasing childhood wounds stored in the body Energetics of healing the inner child You think just because it hasn't happened yet, you need medical assistance. But what if that timing is your transformation? Hello Beautiful Souls, Monica here... Today's episode goes deep; we're talking about thyroids, but not just the kind your lab work pretends is fine. I'm cutting through the medical gaslighting and calling out the perfectionism that's been silently running your show since you were a girl who learned being good and quiet was safer than being heard. You don't need a thyroid diagnosis to feel this one. We're looking at how being a high-achieving, Type A goddess with zero chill and a tightly clenched jaw might actually be the root of your fertility struggle. Yeah, I said it. It's not about pink lines; it is about reclaiming your voice, body, and energy from the inside out. If your gut is “healed” but you still can't get pregnant, or if your labs are “normal” but your intuition is screaming, this episode is your reminder: your healing journey is not a damn checklist. It's a reckoning. If you're doing all the things and still feel stuck in the same fertility loop, this one's for you. We're diving into the kind of work that doesn't show up on lab reports but lives in your nervous system. That burning sensation in your throat? It might not just be your thyroid. It could be decades of words unsaid, versions of your unseen, and emotions unexpressed. If you're done outsourcing your healing and ready to become the most expressed, magnetic, and deeply safe version of you. Press play. Your healing journey isn't about doing more. It's about becoming more of who you were before the world told you to be less. Timestamps 02:23 Perfectionism, not being heard, and how it links to fertility blocks. 06:15 Understanding when medical support is needed and why you should go into it empowered. 07:35 What Western medicine misses in thyroid testing and why thyroid is the root cause for fertility struggles.   10:17 Gut health truths that no one is telling you and the importance of doing the right things for you. 12:23 Why your “clean” diet might still be inflammatory and the energetic root of thyroid issues. 18:04 How your body holds on to old emotional wounds and how to release that pain. 23:18 Why physical and energetic healing must happen together. The reason that situation still impacts your life is because you're still holding the emotion tied to it.

At first this episode was titled “There Is No Rigor In Perfection, There Is Rigor In Your Play”. In a recent episode of one of my favorite podcasts Hidden Brain, psychologist Paul Bloom describes why play is an essential choreography of aliveness for most human and non-human species. He says it's essential because it's a container for “safe practice”. I keep thinking about this phrase, “safe practice”. Oftentimes perfectionism is mistaken for rigor. These two are NOT the same. Perfectionism stops us from starting, rigor invites us to try. The fear rooted in perfectionism is an indication of feeling unsafe inside our practice. My intention inside this episode is to offer spells for cultivating a felt sense of safety inside our practice through rigorous play.

In this episode of the Awake & Winning Podcast, we bring you a repost from the Health Bridge Podcast with host Holly Beck. This conversation dives deep into the role mindset plays in autoimmune healing and overall life transformation. Kaylor opens up about how subconscious programming, victimhood, and perfectionism keep people stuck in cycles of illness, and why radical self-awareness is the first step to freedom. They explore how to stop identifying with disease, challenge the narratives we've been conditioned to believe, and start reclaiming sovereignty in our health and lives. If you've ever felt stuck in your healing journey, this is the wake-up call you didn't know you needed.     Episode Highlights: victimhood, autoimmune healing, subconscious beliefs, perfectionism, mindset work, trauma responses, healing identity, nervous system regulation, vulnerability, manifestation, self-worth, personal sovereignty       Takeaways:   Mindset is the first step in any healing journey Most people unconsciously identify with their illness Beliefs shape biology more than genes do Perfectionism is a coping mechanism rooted in shame Autoimmune diseases can serve subconscious needs for attention Vulnerability must be intentional, not performative You are the observer—not your diagnosis or story     If you enjoyed the episode, please be sure to take a screenshot and share it out on Instagram and tag @thekaylorbetts.

“Am I good enough?” It’s a question so many of us whisper in the quiet moments—when the lights go out, the to-do list is unfinished, and our hearts ache with the weight of not measuring up. This week on The Love Offering podcast, I’m joined by Bethany Broderick, author of Perfected: Ditching Perfection & Receiving God’s Grace in the Midst of Our Mess. In this beautiful conversation, Bethany vulnerably shares her struggle with perfectionism, insecurity, and the desperate desire to feel “enough”—for others, for herself, and even for God. We talk about: *Why the affirmations of culture and even the church sometimes fall short*The hidden ways perfectionism can shape our faith*What it means to truly rest in the finished work of Christ*How we can live in freedom, not fear If you’ve been caught in the exhausting cycle of striving—this episode is an invitation to let go. You don’t have to be good enough. You don’t have to prove yourself. Christ is enough for you. I pray this conversation gives you permission to stop striving and start resting—in the arms of the One who has already perfected you by His grace. With you in love and freedom, Rachael P.S.

Plus, learn practical strategies to overcome perfectionism and move forward. Here's some of what you'll learn in this episode:The importance of making a decision that requires that you take action.How indecision leads to more indecision.What you sacrifice when you refuse to choose.How to get a clear picture of the situation you're in. Show Notes: Taking action, even with imperfect information, is better than staying stuck in indecision. The problem with making no decision is that you're not changing the situation that's paralyzing you. When you can't make a decision, the pressure builds on you exponentially, as does the feeling of isolation and disconnection from your team and your goals. As soon as you start taking action, you get an enormous amount of information about whether it was a right action or a wrong action.Perfectionism is the enemy of progress. Humans are best when they're in motion. People become unproductive when they're not making decisions. You don't have to make the right decision. You can make a decision, and then make it right. Clarity and confidence come after you commit, not before. Decisive entrepreneurs make mistakes, but they also learn and adapt much faster than indecisive ones. When you're indecisive, you lose access to your wisdom, experience, and problem-solving abilities. The act of deciding eliminates alternative options and allows your mind to focus on what matters most. Protecting your role and saying no to distractions is a by-product of being decisive about your commitments. The word “decide” literally means to “kill off” alternatives, freeing you from mental clutter and overwhelm. Resources: The 4 C's Formula by Dan Sullivan The Gap And The Gain by Dan Sullivan with Dr. Benjamin Hardy The Impact Filter™

"It needs to be finished, not perfect." Today, I'm talking about perfectionism. Some people believe that making their business or offer perfect is an admirable quality—but I've got news for you: it's not. Perfectionism has haunted many of the women I've seen start their own businesses. Over time, I've come to recognize it as a coping mechanism—a way to avoid the fear of making what you're working on real. Tune into today's episode as I break down the walls of perfection and build up the foundations of forward momentum.
