    What if chasing perfection is keeping you from true happiness?

I share personal experiences with perfectionism around diet, body image, and social media, plus powerful mindset shifts to help you embrace imperfection, celebrate progress, and find fulfillment in the messy, beautiful parts of life.

    Tired of feeling like you have to be perfect all the time? Or feeling scared to show up as YOU because of judgement?


    In this guest episode, Radha Patel comes on the show to explore what it truly means to SHOW UP AUTHENTICALLY in a world full of expectations and “shoulds.” From navigating fear of judgment to embracing imperfection, Radha shares how letting go of outdated narratives helped her leave a structured engineering path and step into her power as a content creator.


    In our conversation, we unpack the spotlight effect, the myth that everyone’s watching, and dive into how confidence is built through small, intentional steps. If you're done hiding and ready to live in alignment with who you are—not who you think you're supposed to be—this episode is for you.
