How’s your week going so far? I hope you're finding little pockets of joy and calm in the midst of your busy days. 💫

I’m so excited to introduce you to the very first edition of Midweek Momentum! This weekly series is about giving you a gentle nudge, a burst of motivation, and a few actionable tips. Think of it as your midweek pick-me-up—a little boost to remind you that you’ve got this. ✨

Today, I want to talk about something that might be holding you back more than you realize—perfectionism. As introverted, multi-passionate entrepreneurs, we often strive to make everything right. But here’s the thing: Perfectionism can be a sneaky form of procrastination. It tells us, “I’m just not ready yet,” and keeps us from sharing our gifts with the world.

The Perfectionism Trap & How to Escape It

Perfectionism isn’t just about wanting things to be excellent—it’s about fear. Fear of not measuring up, fear of being judged, or fear of failure. But here’s a truth I hope you’ll accept: You don’t need to be perfect to make an impact. Your voice, message, and creativity are enough, just as they are.

What if, instead of aiming for perfection, you aimed for progress? What if you let your projects be 80% done and allowed them to breathe and evolve over time? Sometimes, the beauty lies in imperfections and small, human touches that make your work uniquely yours.

To give you an extra boost of momentum, here’s a simple 3-minute challenge for this week:

🕒 Spend 3 minutes journaling about one thing you’ve been putting off because it’s not “perfect” yet. Ask yourself: What’s the worst that could happen if I just got it done today? Write freely and see what insights come up.

A few minutes is all it takes to clear some mental clutter and get a fresh perspective.
