Today I’m thrilled to welcome onto the show Life Coach Nicole Baker. Nicole’s specialty is in helping perfectionists set goals and then actually follow through with seeing them through.
As a recovering perfectionist myself, who at times has to remind myself not to slip back into perfectionist ways, I really enjoyed this conversation and the actionable advice Nicole shares.
Nicole outlines the three different types of perfectionism and how to best move forward from these tendencies that hold us back. And while you’re listening you may start to identify with one specific type of perfectionism that you tend to lean towards, or you may find that you embody all three types throughout different seasons of your life (I know I have!).
So, if you’re ready to release what’s holding you back so that you can grow and move forward in the direction of your dreams, pop in your earbuds and let’s go.

Kate’s Joyful Corner
This week I am so so grateful for Trader Joe’s! Yes, the grocery store, and if you know you know! I used to live close to one when we lived in Maryland a few years ago, and since moving to PA we’ve been without one nearby.
Well those days are behind us because one just opened about 35 minutes from me and it’s well worth the drive to get there. What I love most about Trader Joe’s is that it’s affordable, that as a family we tend to eat healthier when we shop there, and it’s not a massive store so it’s easy to navigate with two little ones in tow.
So, I’m grateful this week to have Trader Joe’s back in my life and to be able to have a more enjoyable shopping experience again (complete with beautiful, inexpensive flowers I buy each week!).
