PERFECTIONISM: A MENTAL RESET

Let' s talk about Perfectionism...Are you focused on high standards or are you actually in survival mode?

In this episode, we’re not just “talking mindset.” We’re resetting the way your brain, body, and beliefs interact with pressure, performance, and fear of failure.

Dr. Gretchen breaks down:

- Why your brain uses perfectionism as a safety strategy

- The difference between healthy striving vs. anxiety-driven perfection

- How comparison, exhaustion, and fear of feedback keep you stuck

- 4 mental resets to help you start, finish, and share without overthinking

This is not about lowering your standards. In fact, we're elevating your process by rethinking perfectionism. It’s about reclaiming your energy, resetting your nervous system, and redefining what success looks like - on your terms.

✨ Plus: a simple “done not perfect” challenge to put this into action today.
