## Resource

Today’s episode gets real about the perfectionist trap! We’ve convinced ourselves that Amazing is a destination at the end of the Perfection road. But I’m here to tell you that those two things don't even live in the same neighborhood. Perfection was never your assignment. Your assignment was courage. Your assignment was growth. Your assignment was resilience. Your assignment was showing up even when you felt unsure. You were never meant to have it all figured out. You were meant to figure it out as you go. Through trial and error. Through lessons and setbacks. Through wins and losses. Through moments of doubt and moments of bold faith. You don’t need a flawless plan to build a meaningful life. You need a brave heart and a willing spirit.
