87: Conquer Your Self-Doubt and Stop Chasing Perfection, with Sue Hawkes

“It is perfectly ok to say ‘Yes’, and it is perfectly to say ‘No’. I talk about it this way now, that if it’s a ‘Hell Yes’, it’s a ‘Yes’. If it’s a ‘Hell No’, it’s a ‘No’. Anything in between is a ‘Hell No’, because if it’s a ‘Maybe’, it’s just hell. - Sue Hawkes

Does perfection exist as a constant in our lives, work and relationships? Not in reality, but so many people today feel that perfection in life and business is something we need to strive for and should be able to attain at all times. Today’s Finding Brave guest shatters this illusion of perfection, and shows us how we can start loving and accepting ourselves differently, in a very powerful way - right now.

Sue’s message resonates with me personally because it’s about being brave and bold enough to make an assessment about what matters to you personally and pursuing that with gusto and confidence. When you’re truly at peace and in close touch with yourself, then the drama or negativity around you doesn’t agitate you as it did before. To be at the pinnacle of whatever you do means you are at the top of your game. This is a beautiful space to be in, because you are deeply fulfilled and also making a great big dent in this world.
