Perfectionist Micro-Journey #2 (Healing)
A 10-minute guided practice to help you soften the perfectionist push and rewrite the “old rules”—so you can choose new terms that protect your baseline (without losing your drive).
The Perfectionist Micro-Journey (Week 2: Healing)
A 10-minute guided practice to help you soften the perfectionist push and rewrite the “old rules”—so you can choose new terms that protect your baseline (without losing your drive).
If perfectionism shows up for you as pressure, urgency, self-criticism, or fear of failure… this is for you.
This micro-journey helps you discern the voice behind the push (yours vs. someone else’s expectations vs. old survival patterns), then rewrite one “contract term” into something kinder and more sustainable—across Heart / Mind / Body / Soul.
What you’ll get
Inside this 1-page Micro-Journey, you’ll get:
-
A quick grounding step to help your body soften the push (even by 5%)
-
Prompts to discern the voice: my values vs. external expectations vs. old survival rules
-
A short “rewrite the contract” framework (old term → new term)
-
A compassionate script to use when pressure spikes (“My baseline matters more than proving.”)
-
A low-stakes experiment to practice a new term this week (without overhauling your life)
