Smoothie Bowls & Self-Compassion: Notes from a Recovering Perfectionist

This month, I filmed something a little different: a quick video from my car talking about something that’s been on my heart lately—perfectionism.

More specifically: recovering from it.

Perfectionism has been a quiet thread in so many parts of my life—how I show up, how I measure success, even how I speak to myself. And while I’ve gotten better at noticing it, unlearning it is still a process.

If you’ve ever felt like your worth is tied to your performance, or like you’re never doing quite enough—this one’s for you.

It’s not polished. It’s not planned. But it’s honest—and that feels like a step forward.
