Fighting against yourself IS playing life on torture mode AND entirely OPTIONAL. Most solutions for overcoming perfectionism suck. They're not empowering, efficient or any FUN, plus research shows Overcoming Perfectionism simply doesn’t workwhen you are driven, ambitious, caring, high-performer. That’s WHY I’m revealing how you can take your frustrating perfectionistic tendencies—like catastrophizing, people-pleasing and overthinking— and remix them with refreshingly practical perspectives from our neurodiversity neighbor, ADHD.

Want to feel as incredible on the inside as your life looks on the outside? Then you gotta check out Perfectionism Optimized, the only 1-1 private coaching backed by SCIENCE for driven, ambitious, Type-A high performers with perfectionistic tendencies. Inquire today over at: https://courtneylovegavin.com/optimized

Perfectionism Rewired podcast is brought to you by America's leader on rewiring perfectionism, Courtney Love Gavin (CLG) and is committed to neuroscience truth + accuracy through a perfectionist affirming lens.

WTF does Perfectionist Affirming mean? Perfectionist affirming is an empowered view where perfectionistic tendencies are not seen as deficits to be “fixed” - no victims, powerlessness or fighting against. Instead your perfectionism is leveraged to work for you. Part of neurodiversity movement that sees humans as uniquely wired individuals who all experience the world differently.

“I just need to get through this quarter, THEN I'll....”

“Explaining it takes too long + I really don’t have the time”

“They rarely do it right anyways…”

^^^ these are SUPER common things I hear from high-achieving perfectionists who are used to doing it themselves and figuring it out alone. This works… until it doesn’t. Until you burnout, are pulling insane hours or get passed over for a promotion.

It doesn’t have to be this way. Delegating and resourcing yourself are skills that are REALLY different than the incredible skills of “figuring it out and flying solo”.

Go from resentful to resourceful knowing the No. 1 misconception perfectionist's believe about resourcing yourself and how to dissolve this back asswards thinking.

Ever decided to start working out everyday, do it for a week or two and then when life gets super busy, you're back to sloth status? Or expected yourself to be relaxed just as soon as you finish power planning your week? Those are signs that your perfectionism is setting you up to fail.

When are you going to stop falling for leadership “experts” who only want you to do EXACTLY what they did to have their “impact?”Impact that’s based in scarcity, desire for control and reinforcement of supremacy. No ethical Coach can teach a cookie cutter leadership strategy (i.e how to lead as a WOC) and expect it to be effective when it’s only focusing on surface level maneuvers 🥸disguised as “strategies” to sound more $ophisticated. We can be so quick to mimic what other successful leaders are doing. Especially when there’s nobody else like us at the top. If you wants a different way of expressing your leadership that isn't modeling the white cis-male dominance, listen to this.

Today I’m joined today by my client Margot Van’t Rood where she shares how her experience with coaching led to a deep internal self-generated safety and ability to take up space. You’ll hear her say “Now I feel that I am valuable. I have value and it's not dependent on what I do. I'm not valuable because I did the dishes and I cleaned the room and I did these things. I am valuable. Period. Full stop.”

An internal sense of safety is built from recognizing your authentic power and trusting there is an unwavering well of support and guidance within you. It starts with honoring and appreciating your true authentic self, committing to the deep work and bravely accepting being in the now.

I love how Margot describes some people's hesitation with coaching because we don't want anyone to know we don’t have it all figured out but in reality, we all have unique yet similar experiences and it's all part of our humanness. Coaches are here to show you your blind spots and guide you to where you desire to grow.

Through her own growth, Margot discovered that part of her work here in this lifetime is to help guide others to a life of simplicity and share her own journey of shedding all the things weighing her down.

You'll absolutely love this conversation. It’s time to quiet the self-doubting voices in your head so that You too can feel empowered and find satisfying, simplified success.

PS- In the intro I candidly shine a light on my ADHD and how these two episodes are a huge celebration.

Today's episode is not only empowering, it's magical. You'll be hearing from my private client, Margot, as she shares her story of transformation. Even though she was hesitant about coaching she ultimately made the decision to "just go for it" and make the investment (3 times over!). She decided that she was done with scarcity thinking and by investing the resources to really change her life, she's learned how to think differently about her self.

In her pursuit to elevate her thinking, you'll hear how Margot discovered her secret weapons, self compassion and acceptance. This is a candid conversation about transformation that's RIPE with all the details most people leave out like: what happens when you stop people pleasing and someone gets mad at you, how to feel safe spending large amounts of money, learning how to use your feelings to guide you and trusting your intuition even when your brain is SO LOUD and annoying.

Listen in to hear precisely what happens when you decide to go ALL IN and start betting on yourself.

Perfectionism creates poverty. Perfectionism robs us of our confidence, contentment and steals the joy in celebrating our success. If you think you might be a perfectionist, know someone who is or think being a perfectionist helps you achieve your goals. THIS EPISODE IS A MUST LISTEN.

For 30+ years, I wore my perfectionism like a badge of honor and based my self-worth & value on achievements. Now as a recovering perfectionist, instead of becoming paralyzed by the goal of unattainable perfectionism, I feel the energy of FREEDOM in letting go (without lowering my standards). This episode shows you what's on the other side of strong ambition and how to break through the barrier of sneaky perfectionist thinking.

Want to be a sought-after expert? Join The Notorious CLG, the Visibility Expert for Experts like Gloria Steinem, Oscar-winning directors & Pulitzer Prize winners, as she delves into what an expert REALLY is [Spoiler Alert⚠️]: It's NOT slapping the word expert into your bio].

Today on Pretty Pretty Podcast, Courtney Love discusses what it means to be an expert.

There’s a ton of misunderstanding behind the idea of expertise. What do you have to prove to earn the title of “expert”? Is it a title that you give yourself, or is it one that others bestow on you? How much, and what kind, of self-promotion does it take? Does it mean being a human encyclopedia for your specialization?

Listen in as Courtney Love tackles these questions and more by sharing practical and tactical strategies to help you replace imposter syndrome with the unshakable confidence of a true expert.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE:● Bringing certainty into any situation you’re faced with

● Why all the degrees in the world won’t translate to practical, real-world experience

● Failing your way to expertise

● Unlocking expertise through integrity

● How would you show up everywhere if you believed you were an expert?

● Two key steps to promoting yourself the right away

● How vulnerability unlocks the expert in you

● Upping your expert energy without burnout
