The Career Coach Mandy Podcast

Do you ever find yourself overthinking and overanalyzing, to the point where you can't even get anything done? Girl, same. In this video, I talk about how perfectionism is keeping us stuck, and in order to learn, we have to start doing. This means putting stuff out there that's messy, not fully formed, and half-baked -- but allowing ourselves to exist in these in between states and therefore being...

Perfectionism is a silent killer. It's the voice that says "not yet," "it's not good enough," and it convinces us to wait until someday. But the truth is, you don't get better by waiting — you get better by doing. You get better by showing up messy, awkward, and imperfect.

In this video, I break down the difference...

In today's episode, we're going to be talking about creativity, and what to do when we feel creatively stuck because we are just doing things out of obligation. We do things because we feel like we "should" instead of actually wanting to. This is dangerous and can lead to creative ruts and exhaustion. Instead, give yourself permission to experiment, to play, to do things for fun, and to follow the...
