As a lifelong perfectionist, this book was a wake-up call. I didn’t realize how much my "high standards" were actually anxiety in disguise—until the chapter on self-talk flipped a switch. The practical steps, like the CALM method and embracing "good enough," helped me ease up at work and even in parenting. The section on failure as feedback? Game-changer. Now I’m quicker to pivot instead of panic. If you’re tired of your own impossible expectations, this is worth every minute.
