In this episode, Hilary looks into the pitfalls of perfectionism, especially among women. She compares it to an impractical designer dress—appealing yet not that useful in everyday life. The quest for perfection is driven by societal pressures, fear of judgment, a need for control, upbringing, and self-worth issues. Hilary argues that striving for perfection is futile, similar to running on a treadmill and hoping to reach a destination. To break free, she suggests embracing imperfection, learning from mistakes, setting achievable standards, practicing self-compassion, and reducing the 'shoulds'. Abandoning perfectionism can lead to a more relaxed, enjoyable life, boosting creativity and productivity. Although there are instances where perfection is crucial, everyday life isn't one of them. Hilary encourages you to release the constricting 'corset of perfectionism' and embrace the real, imperfect moments of life, reminding you that you are perfect just the way you are!

In this episode, I'll be diving deep into a topic that resonates with many of us: our "Mojo." We've all experienced those phases in life when our spark dims a little, right? Well, today's discussion revolves around why we lose our mojo and, more importantly, how we can find it again. The inspiration for today's episode sprouted from a delightful conversation I had with Mel, an incredibly talented woman from South Australia responsible for designing my website (give it a peek at https://hilarysaxton.com/). Her radiant energy got me reflecting on my own diminished vibrancy and how I'd unintentionally left my mojo behind somewhere. It's intriguing how life's hustle, such as a jam-packed weekend or massive work projects, can drain our zest. After a recent weekend getaway, I found myself wondering where my zest had vanished. Have you ever felt as if you've misplaced your mojo? Maybe you're feeling it right now? Tune in for some tips on Mojo and how to reignite your spark!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
