Do you dare to be imperfect?
If you scroll down, I will reveal how I have been struggling to be perfect and how it has limited me.
Last year was deeply transformative for me. I began training with Dr. Claire Zammit to become a specialist in coaching women. Now I have stepped into becoming certified ✨
What makes it different is that it is not just mindset coaching or strategy work.
We focus on identity level transformation. We look at the invisible internal blocks and operating systems that quietly run in the background of our lives, often without us even realizing it.
One of the biggest patterns I have been working through is perfectionism. I used to believe I had to be perfect, and I judged myself constantly for falling short. I told myself that before I could truly share my brilliance, launch a program, or put my work into the world, everything had to be flawless.
But perfection was the very thing holding me back.
When I looked deeper, I saw where this began. Growing up, my mom would say, “I don’t want you to be judged, so it’s my job to train you to be perfect.” That came with a lot of control, and over time it slowly squeezed out creativity, joy, and ease. I became someone who was always monitoring herself, never feeling like I was enough, always trying to hold everything together. It is exhausting to live that way.
Through this work, I uncovered a deeper truth. The little girl inside me does not need to be perfect to be loved or accepted. She is already enough just being herself. I do not have to prove my worth to deserve my place on this planet.
Now I am learning to show up authentically, imperfections and all. To share before I feel “ready.” To be vulnerable about the patterns I am still working through. Instead of asking, “Is this perfect?” I ask, “What did I learn, and what can I try next?”
What if being imperfect is actually the path to success?
If you find yourself stuck, waiting to be better, smarter, more polished before you begin, maybe the real invitation is to start now. To practice. To create. To show up as you are and let that be enough. 💛
