A common thing that perfectionists end up doing is taking so long to complete something that often times it NEVER gets finished and put out into the world.

Other times the process of completing something takes 50x longer because you keep going back to fix or change or refine little things. These little things may seem like BIG flaws to you but would most other people even notice them or be bothered by them?

Meanwhile what is all this extra time costing you? Depending on what you’re working on, it could be costing you success, growth, money, connection, joy - and especially peace of mind!

Healing perfectionism isn’t about needing to lower your standards or learning to be ok with mediocrity.

It’s about addressing the underlying fear - through therapy or coaching or inner self work - so that it stops driving your behavior and you can feel MORE peace, more confidence, have more rest and trust and belief in yourself (AND get your beautiful creations and projects out into the world!)✨😍

From injury to healing and thriving!

Sometimes what feels like a setback in the moment leads to something healing and inspiring.

Four years ago I was training for a half marathon when I took a hard fall. At the time it felt frustrating - an injury that disrupted my training and left me in pain. But that fall led me to meeting Chris Simon .massagetherapy, a massage therapist in FL who has become a trusted practitioner.

He helped me recover and get back on track and I still see him to this day whenever I visit my sister and friends in FL! Recently I even had the pleasure of personally delivering one of my books that he ordered to him😊

The ripple effect of that “setback” continues to spread - Chris has also been able to help a close friend of mine who’s been dealing with chronic pain.

If you’re going through a difficult time right now, remember this…

That injury, that challenge, that hardship - as much as we wish these things would never happen in the first place - they may end up leading you to a solution, a connection or an opportunity you never would have found otherwise.

The body holds memory of the trauma response so sometimes massage therapy can be helpful for the mind in addition to the body. What makes the difference is the practitioner and the application of what they know as well as the readiness of you, the client.

It’s important to hold onto that kind of hope when going through rough times!

"Just talk about it enough, choose positivity, and you'll feel better."

Except for many people this is not enough.

The mind is powerful but when you experience overwhelming events, your entire being responds - not JUST your thinking mind. This means more than talk therapy and mindset work is often required in order to heal, especially when trying to process difficult experiences.

If you’ve tried talk therapy in the past and struggled to find relief, don’t give up! You may just need a multi-layered and holistic approach - one that addresses your WHOLE being (body, mind, spirit)... not just the mind.

We’ve all heard “time heals all wounds” - but if that were true, why do childhood experiences still affect us even decades later?

Time alone doesn’t always heal. It often just gives you more distance to avoid the real work.

What actually heals:

✨creating safe space to revisit the wound
✨identifying the beliefs formed in that moment
✨processing emotions you buried
✨releasing what you’ve been carrying in your body
✨rewriting your relationship to the experience

Healing isn’t passive. It’s not something that happens TO you while you wait. It’s something you actively choose, often with support, compassion and courage. AND time!

The wounds don’t disappear with just the passing of time. But they can transform with intention.

Who are you as a person? Can you answer that about yourself?

Many of my clients come to me because they can't answer it. They've been so focused on being that desired image of themselves, they have forgotten how to think about who they really are and what they really want.

Healing TIME can help you discover those answers.

Get unstuck, uncover and release limiting beliefs holding you back and live with greater freedom, peace and flow.
