There is a massive difference between pursuing health and pursuing perfection.
When you're pursuing health, you hold space for balance and moderation. A dinner out doesn't derail you. You're still able to eat in alignment with your fitness goals 80% of the time, even while away for a weekend.
Pursuing perfection looks very different.
You have rigid standards. There is no room for error. And that one wrong move - the unplanned cookies in the breakroom, the chocolate you ate from the vending machine at your kid's sporting event - sends you into a shame spiral that keeps you stuck in the behaviours that made you feel so bad about yourself in the first place.
You've messed up, so all bets are off. Now, you're too filled with shame and self-directed anger to focus on your goals. You make one misaligned choice after the other for days or weeks on end until you can finally muster up the energy to go back to being "perfect" again.
That often takes a while because being perfect? It's exhausting. It's all consuming.
You can end this cycle. You can step off the imaginary path of perfectionism and get back on the road to true health. The road to health feels energizing. It feels safe. It puts you into a state of thriving.
Tune in to today's episode to learn how to make this shift in your own life.
