Aflevering Overwhelmed By Growth: Escaping The Pressure To Constantly Fix Yourself

"Letting go of perfectionism in personal and spiritual development"In this episode, we talk about the exhausting cycle of always feeling the need to fix yourself, especially in the realm of personal and spiritual development. Many of us are overwhelmed by the constant pursuit of becoming 'better,' often leaving us with the feeling that we’re never good enough. I discuss the pressures that come with self-improvement, how it can lead to burnout, and why it's important to shift from fixing yourself to accepting where you are. I also share the story of a client who struggled with these same issues and how they found a healthier, more balanced approach. If you're tired of the endless journey of self-improvement and want to find peace in the process, this episode is for you. Do you want to work one on one with me?
