After a real-life, in-person conversation between the two of us about perfectionism, we decided we needed an episode about how a fear of mistakes can hold us back from the goals we really want to achieve.

We talked about:

  1. Why trying to prevent messing up our goals isn’t the right approach -- and what to do instead
  2. Asking ourselves what we’re REALLY trying accomplish by setting a goal: is it to check off the boxes or to create a transformation?
  3. Why we don’t necessarily think goals need to be specific and measurable
  4. The difference between creation goals and maintenance goals
  5. What it would look like to create your own definition of failure
