I'm so glad to hear you are glad to hear me, Mike! My hubby insists that I narrate my book. I've tried it a number of times, but the yappy pups interfere with the recordings.
If I were playing in a World Series of Poker tournament in Las Vegas, I would begin several months prior shifting my bio-clock. Sounds like you might give that a try, Mike. When in doubt, as wife.
detour.. yes, taking detour currently.. refinement loop ;-) but I will finish this weekend however the draft will look like ;-) love the recording. we women are especially crazy.
Writing this and sharing it directly with you through my voice is the roadmap to escaping perfectionism.
"Perfection isn’t progress. It’s a detour disguised as diligence."
I'm choosing the get-er-done route.
such a good idea! yes do a shitty draft. send a messy recording. I was thinking about the difference between perfectionism and excellence.
Drafting fast is fun. When inspiration hits, just do it! Let me give you an example:
Two days ago, I did a micro course creation session with a kickass guy I've known since 2019.
After the productive session, I was fleshing out this tiny course and got stuck on the subtitle, which prompted a note.
The response to the note told me I was not alone. The perfection virus is rampant.
That night I asked CharGPT to give me a framework that is me.
I fleshed out the post and the next night, I zoomed with HUBS#3 and recorded while I share the post with him.
That is me just doing it 😀
What about a challenge to finish at 80% shall we? I am very meticulous too but no one would notice .. and there is no benefit to it right?
Right! How would they know we were at 80% finished when it languishes on our hard drive?
For me to go from inspired idea to note to post and recording in 36 hours impresses even me! 🤪
Haha that little perfectionism bug sitting on our shoulders can be a nuisance…thanks for sharing and being so real with your experience!
You’re awesome!
Today, I shared Evict the Perfection Witch MindShift Exercise during an intimate group Self-Talk Tune-Up.
What's better than a micro course focused on perfectionism escape plan developed by a recovering perfectionist? 😂🤣😂
Hands down - the best audio I've heard since the last one I listened to!
But seriously - Doona has a powerful message drlivered with such a well paced, dare I say, soothing voice - I could listen to that voice all day.
A shooting star up my list of fave Substackers!

Now. GO to BED! It's almost daylight down under.
Too late. I woke my wife and now I'm in trouble. 👍

You know. Happy wife. Happy life. LOL

Glad this resonates with you. I had fun writing, recording and publishing. Crazy, maybe, but how does it feel being a badass? 🤗
The recording is awesome!!
Thank you Play! Letting a recording go with stumbles here and there is freeing 🎙️
I might steel this 🦋
Help yourself and Evict your Perfection Witch!
