In this episode of The Life You Crave, Lia Pinelli unpacks the 3 P’s of self-sabotage: Perfectionism and People-Pleasing. These two common traits hold women back from achieving their health and business goals. Lia shares insightful examples of how perfectionist tendencies and people-pleasing behaviors create a cycle of overwhelm, procrastination, and guilt. Most importantly, she provides actionable tools to overcome these habits and embrace a mindset of progress over perfection.
Key Takeaways:
Perfectionism Blocks Progress: Striving for perfection often leads to all-or-nothing thinking, which hinders learning and sustainable growth.
The Power of B-Minus Work: Accepting imperfection allows for progress and keeps you in the game, whether it’s with food habits or business goals.
People-Pleasing with Food: Feeling obligated to eat or act in ways that please others can derail personal goals. A key mindset shift? Be okay with others’ disappointment.
Mindset Shift Tip: Instead of all-or-nothing thinking, embrace the idea that “it’s possible” to live differently. This approach opens the door for growth and transformation.
Action Steps:
Reflect on how perfectionism or people-pleasing might be impacting your health, food, or professional goals.
Practice the mantra: “I’m okay with B-minus work,” and notice the freedom it creates in your decision-making.
