The Imperfectionist:
Dealing with a difficult issue in a playful way
This is an exclusive, small-batch online course with a twist: on Postage Day, a small, hand-curated kit, wrapped in brown paper with a sparkly wax seal will be sent to you in the post.
You will also receive access to the online course which accompanies the kit. Or perhaps the kit accompanies the course - you can decide. It works in a perfectly imperfect way.
It is playfully designed to increase your capacity to be an Imperfectionist, reducing the harmful effects of perfectionism, freeing you up to live a more joyful, productive and successful life.
The lessons in the course are fun and playful, but don't let that kid you that this isn't a serious learning tool, carefully designed to reduce our shared major issue of perfectionism: of being encouraged to always strive for more and feel we aren't enough.
Society has made us think this way and it is wrong. You are enough. We all are.
Putting an end to this takes work. We might as well make it creative and fun whilst we do it!
There's also a whole heap of thinking behind being able to play and hold things more lightly which directly connects to building skills as an Imperfectionist.
I really look forward to working with you to banish those pesky perfectionism traits and help you don your cape as an Imperfection Superhero!

Why would being an Imperfectionist
be a good thing?
- Being imperfect gives you more time
- It helps you be more creative, playful and be able to experiment more
- It means you get things done by moving you away from inertia to action
- Imperfection, when practiced regularly can reduce stress cortisol levels
- It reduces "comparisonitis", giving you freedom to forge ahead with your plans
- It brings a lot of joy
- It means you're off the hook - you don't need to continually strive for more, you can still be ambitious but you can also be content with where you're at.

A bit about why I made this course
I was always a creative kid, but over the years I become increasingly frustrated and annoyed with myself.
Those feelings were coming from both self-oriented and socially-oriented forms of perfectionism.
The ideas in my head never turned out quite right in reality and I became more and more hard on myself.
Then suddenly something shifted. I started to care less and create more. At the time I gave it little thought, only recently have I traced my adult development as an Imperfectionist back to that time.
For years, I berated myself for not being perfectionist. It was so often held up as something to be impressed by - a badge of honour.
But I couldn't do it. Why? Because found it too limiting. It stopped me getting things done, increased inertia and, quite frankly, made me feel a bit rubbish.
I just assumed I wasn't "as good" as those who were constantly striving for perfection and just got on with stuff.
Now I can see my perspective was riddled with survivor bias (I was only focusing on extremely successful perfectionists), and actually, my way of working, creating and being as an Imperfectionist was actually a superpower.
I'm totally delighted I now get to share these powers with you!
