Trying to be perfect and do things perfectly … all the time … is freaking exhausting. It’s unattainable and it’s unsustainable. It is time to let go of perfectionism and accomplish all the things you want to do. Ready to learn how to let go of perfectionism, so you can start getting things done?
THAT’s what we’re discussing in today’s podcast episode.
I am a recovering perfectionist and today, I want to share my journey with you and all of the tips and tricks that I have picked up along the way. Most importantly – I want to show you that sometimes letting go of the perfect image in your head (and just doing) is the best step you could ever take.
Being a perfectionist means you care about the details–and you want to get whatever it is you’re doing “right.” But perfectionism can hold you back from doing anything at all.

I don’t need another pair of wide leg linen pants.
I need to wear the damn ones I already own.
Earlier this year, I realized something: I’ve got great taste, a closet full of beautiful things…
And yet I kept reaching for the same 3 outfits on repeat — feeling stuck, uninspired, and like I “had nothing to wear.”
Not true. I had plenty to wear — I just wasn’t choosing to see it.
So I gave myself a challenge:
No new clothes for a year.
Instead of shopping, I’d start styling again.
Wearing what I already have. Rediscovering my personal style. Feeling good in my body right now — not 10 pounds from now, not after the next launch, not when I “have somewhere to go.”
Just because I want to.
Because I can.
And because showing up as yourself — unapologetically and on purpose — is always in style.
I’ll be sharing outfits here and in my stories for accountability but also fun! I hope you’ll follow along, even though this is a lot different from what I normally post. 💜

You know that moment when someone really sees you?
That’s what the WPI retreat felt like, over and over again.
Yes, there were strategy sessions. Yes, there was hot seat coaching. Yes, there were breakthroughs you could feel in your bones.
But the real magic? Happened in the in-between.
On the couch, over coffee, in those late-night convos where your guard drops and the truth comes out.
There’s something powerful about getting in a room with women who just get it.
Who’ve been where you are.
Who aren’t here to compete, but instead to remind you of what you’re capable of.
You deserve moments like these. Find the space, the time, and the means to invest in yourself.
You ARE worth it.
Love you, mean it.
Xo,
Candice
