S3 E12 - Perfection Can Wait Your Great Work Can’t
Lisa sits down with Dr. Amanda Crowell, cognitive psychologist, author, and coach, to talk about why so many of us are stuck in the world’s longest game of “ready, set… wait.”
You know the script: “I’ll finally start my big idea… once I answer 27 emails, reorganize the junk drawer, and learn Italian on Duolingo.” That’s procrastination and perfectionism at work, and frankly, they’re terrible project managers.
Amanda shows us how to fire those two clowns, laugh at our own delay tactics, and actually get rolling on the Great Work that matters most. The stuff that keeps nudging you at 3 a.m. or whispering during Zoom meetings — yeah, that work.
If you’re done waiting for perfect, this episode hands you the permission slip (and a gentle kick) to get moving. Because perfection can wait. Your Great Work? It’s banging on the door with snacks.
