190: Get Good at Being Bad - How to Let Go of Perfectionism And Find Your Spark in Midlife

✨ Why High Achievers Struggle to Start Over in Midlife — and How to Get Good at Being Bad ✨

 

Are you a high achiever struggling to pivot in midlife because you’re afraid of being a beginner again?

 

I’m speaking directly to the straight-A students, the perfectionists, the women who’ve spent their lives excelling — but now feel stuck when it’s time to try something new. Whether you’re considering a career shift, a creative pursuit, or just want to feel alive again, this conversation is your invitation to let go of perfectionism and embrace the power of starting over.

 

I’ll share why our need to be “great” before we begin is holding us back, how I’m currently learning to be bad (on YouTube!) — and why being bad at something new might be the bravest and most energizing thing you can do in this season.

 

💡 You’ll learn:

•Why the “straight-A” mindset becomes a straight-jacket in midlife

•How perfectionism delays growth, pivots, and purpose

•What it looks like to reclaim your spark by being brave, not perfect

•Mantras and microshifts to help you get started today

 

🧭 This is your second coming-of-age. It’s not a test. It’s an adventure.
