04 - Perfectionism: The Procrastination Addiction That's Holding Back Your Art Sales


As artists, we have this magic way of curating materials, color, value, and composition to generate fantastic new works that delight the soul. But when sharing those works with the world, we suddenly face perfectionism. It seems innocuous enough, but to put it in Brene’s words, perfectionism is the 20-ton shield we think we carry around to keep us from being hurt when what it actually does is it keeps us from being seen.

In this episode, we explore the topic of perfectionism and how it can negatively impact how you show up for your art. We'll uncover the truth about perfectionism and how it shows up, and I’ll share strategies to help you overcome it.

Take a ride on the never-ending spiral of perfectionism to build awareness of how it can rob artists of their joy, peace of mind, and creative momentum. I'll delve into the roots of perfectionism and how it can manifest in our lives and provide actionable tips to help you curate your inner dialogue, set realistic goals, and redefine success for yourself.

So get ready to learn how imperfection can be a beautiful thing and how to embrace your perfectly imperfect self!
