Join me as I dive into a topic close to my heart - how you can be a perfectionist, even if you’re what some might call a "hot mess."

I'll explore the tension between striving for perfection and managing the beautiful chaos that comes with ADHD and I share my personal journey from unmasking my ADHD to recovering from perfectionism.

This episode is unscripted, which I think beautifully embodies today’s theme: that done is better than perfect.
