If you’ve ever caught yourself saying:
👉 “If I can’t eat clean every day, why bother?”
👉 “I overate last night so today’s already ruined.”
👉 “I’ll just start again on Monday…”
Then this episode is for you.
I know this cycle well because I’ve lived it. And I see it every week in the women I coach—brilliant, high-achieving women who stay stuck in “all-or-nothing” thinking. Perfectionism feels like it’s helping you, but in reality, it’s keeping you from making progress.
In today’s episode, I’m breaking down how perfectionism sneaks into your weight loss journey, why it leads to procrastination and starting over (again and again), and how you can finally shift to a mindset of progress over perfection.
Here’s what you’ll hear:
✨ Why weight loss doesn’t require perfection… it requires consistency
✨ The sneaky ways perfectionism shows up in your journey
✨ How the “starting over on Monday” cycle delays your results
✨ The four mindset shifts that will free you from perfectionism:
- I’m not on a diet, I’m building a lifestyle
- Setbacks are normal and expected
- Flexibility beats rigidity every time
- Why aiming for “B minus work” will get you further than striving for A+
This is about ditching the pressure to get it “perfect” and finally building the lifestyle that helps you lose weight and keep it off, for good.
💡 Remember: done is better than perfect, and slow, steady, imperfect progress is what actually gets results.
