RULE #2: I have to be perfect

“I have to be perfect.”

This is one of the most common - and most damaging - rules I see running the show in women’s lives and relationships.

In this episode of Fuck the Rules of Love, I break down why perfectionism is actually a self-protective mechanism, how it sets you up to feel inadequate, and why it creates walls instead of connection.

We’ll talk about:
✨ Why striving to “do it all perfectly” only leads to failure and self-criticism
✨ How perfectionism shows up as projection in your relationship (and why he isn’t actually the problem)
✨ The truth about intimacy, accountability, and letting love in - imperfections and all

Perfection doesn’t exist. And chasing it is keeping you from the juicy, vulnerable, soul-deep intimacy you crave.
