Creating marketing videos for my business filled me with dread—until my husband and I confronted my perfectionism head-on.
Ever found yourself paralyzed by the need for everything to be flawless? Join me, Genny Perez, as I share my journey of realizing how perfectionism was blocking my creative flow and learn how I’m working to overcome it. We’ll explore how the relentless pursuit of perfect outcomes can stifle innovation and why acknowledging our imperfections might just be the key to success. Drawing on personal experiences and insights from a Harvard Business Review article*, I unpack the impact of perfectionism on workplace performance and how it intertwines with our drive for excellence.
