Episode description

Have you ever taken on a project that you thought would be straightforward…and then discovered it wasn’t? 

Sometimes that occurs because of the expectations we put on ourselves to perform at a certain level. 

That’s what happened to me when I tried to record a headshot video. 

In this solo episode I describe the situation, how I handled the setbacks, and what I learned from the experience that might be helpful for you, too. 

I’m the co-founder and president of Grow Strong Leaders. We’ve created online resources that help leaders strengthen their character and communication skills to build strong relationships and inspire others to perform at the highest level.  

You’ll discover: 

  • The challenge I was given in a LinkedIn course
  • How I define perfectionism
  • Why I struggled initially to complete this assignment
  • What slowing down and reflecting helped me realize
  • 3 insights that allowed me to relax and enjoy the process
