Perfectionist Professional Woman
Perfectionism pretends to be noble. It pretends to help you improve and grow. But in reality, it creates crippling self-doubt and leaves you feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and stuck. Instead of helping you grow, perfectionism limits your potential and keeps you small. Perfectionism hits women especially hard. Throw a profession, some children, and religion into the mix and then it really kicks into high gear. The Perfectionist Professional Woman podcast is for high-achieving working women who want to feel more confidence and self-worth at work and at home. If you know you’re smart and skilled but secretly worry you’re not good enough, if you consistently tweak and re-tweak your work trying to make it “just right,” if you’re terrified of failing because you’re worried others will think you’re incompetent, this is the podcast for you. In each episode, Certified Life Coach Keri Martinez will teach you how you can reduce insecurity and overwhelm, decrease fear of failure, increase confidence and self-worth, and enjoy your life more.

Every day our amazing brains automatically and subconsciously collect evidence from the world around us. They collect evidence of what is and isn’t safe, what works and what doesn’t, and what’s important and what’s not – all to help us survive and navigate the world.
Our brains are better and faster at collecting negative evidence than positive, though, and the over-collection of negative evidence often causes us to believe things that aren’t useful. What, if anything, can we do to change that?
In this episode you'll learn one of my favorite self-coaching tools you can use to override your brain’s default evidence collection process. This tool is incredibly powerful, universally applicable, and simple to use. Listen in to learn the four-step process that can help you improve any area of your life.
