About this listen
If you're an artist, maker, or creative business owner who struggles with overthinking, over-editing, or waiting until things feel “perfect,” this episode is for you. We’re talking about the sneaky ways perfectionism slows down creatives — and how to finally break the cycle so you can take confident, imperfect action.
Inside the episode, you’ll learn:
- Why perfectionism shows up as “I’m not ready yet”
- How over-planning and endless revising drain your momentum
- Why imperfect work builds confidence faster than perfect intentions
- Five practical strategies to help you take action now
Perfectionism feels responsible, but it’s really fear disguised as productivity. Your work deserves to be seen, and your audience doesn’t need perfect, they need YOU.
This episode wraps up Season 1 of Hey, Beautiful Creative! I’ll be back in the new year refreshed, inspired, and ready for Season 2.
