info_outlineIn this episode of The 30-Day Year Podcast, Dave and Jacq Conway pull back the curtain on perfectionism: Where it comes from, how it shows up in high achievers, and what happens when high standards quietly turn into self-sacrifice, nervous system overload, and stalled dreams.
Jacq shares stories from her childhood, her dance career, and her years running big marketing projects, while Dave unpacks the difference between healthy and unhealthy perfectionism, shares the famous pottery class experiment on quantity versus “one perfect pot,” and challenges listeners to stop using perfectionism as a socially acceptable excuse for inaction.
As a funny side note: Jacq actually really did struggle with recording this episode. As she admits on air, this episode on “perfectionism” literally sat in her project management board labeled “Not Done,” for a long time, because her “perfectionist brain” decided this one had to be flawless! The irony is not lost on her or Dave. 😂
If you are the kind of person who always wants it “just a little better” and you secretly beat yourself up when things are not perfect, this conversation will help you turn perfectionism into a strength instead of a cage. You’ll even discover how Jacq ultimately turned toxic perfectionism into one of her greatest superpowers… and how YOU can too! Tune in to episode 45 now!
