Overcoming Imposter Syndrome, Perfectionism, and Letting Go of Control

Shit Just Got Real

Hi everyone! Taylor and Alina here, bringing you another episode of Shit Just Got Real. We know it's been a while, and trust us, we feel your abandonment fears (we’re annoyed with our own bulls*** too), but we're back and ready to dive deep into why we took a hiatus from the podcast.

In this episode, we tackle the reasons behind our big break. From the fear of getting everything you've ever wanted taken away to the illusion of needing to be in control, we explore the emotional rollercoaster that led to our hiatus and the lessons we've learned along the way. It's a raw and honest conversation that will resonate with anyone who's ever felt like an imposter in the pursuit of their passions and is an active self-sabotager or perfectionist.

We open up about the challenges we faced during our time off, and how we conquered the fear of pursuing our passions. Let's just say, it involved some major soul-searching, self-discovery, and questioning what truly defines us. We also delve into the complexities of asking for help, the weight of always having the answers, and the beauty of shared experiences.

But that's not all! We touch on the power of surrounding ourselves with like-minded individuals who support our most authentic selves, the liberating effect of breaking free from old habits and people-pleasing, and the importance of incorporating rest periods into our lives. Plus, we unveil the story behind the inception of our podcast, the hurdles we faced, and the unwavering passion that keeps us going.

Join us as we navigate the twists and turns of personal growth, challenge the toxic notion of perfectionism, and encourage each other (and you) to embrace imperfections as part of our journey. We believe in the power of vulnerability, and our goal is to create a healing space for both us and our listeners.

We promise you an episode that's equal parts thought-provoking, relatable, and inspiring. It's time to break free from the limitations we've imposed on ourselves and embrace the unknown. Buckle up, because Shit Just Got Real is back, and we're going full speed ahead! THANK YOU for your continuous support, and get ready for an episode that will make you question everything. But like, in a good way :)

With love,
A + T
