FREE 5-DAY PODCASTING MINI-COURSE — Everything you need to know before starting your podcasting journey.Free podcasting newsletter — Weekly. Five minutes or less. No BS.___________If perfectionism has ever kept you stuck, stalled a project, or stopped you from launching your podcast, this episode will help you look at it from a different lens.Today, I'm diving into the sneaky ways perfectionism disguises itself as "high standards"—when in reality, it's fear in a polished outfit. Drawing from my own podcasting journey and real-life examples, I unpack how overthinking and fear of judgment can stop even the most creative minds from putting their work out there.You’ll learn why the fear of being seen (especially by people you know in real life) can be paralyzing—and how to move forward anyway.You'll also hear about one of my favorite insights from Amy Porterfield, reminding us that B+ work gets us further than chasing A+ perfection ever will.Whether you're a podcaster, content creator, or just someone trying to finally take that next step in your business, this is the episode for you.Takeaways:Progress beats perfection.You don’t need it all figured out to begin.You’re not being judged as much as you think.The pursuit of perfection limits your learning.There’s no growth without momentum.B+ work is good enough.Resources mentioned:Interview by Alex Sanfilippo: How Amy Porterfield Went From No Online Presence to $100M In SalesMy LinkedIn profile (let's connect and discuss this further!)___________Let's connect on LinkedIn:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/anjalordanic/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Thank you and see you next week!
