If you work well under pressure but struggle to take action when there's no deadline, this episode is for you.

Most of the tasks that actually grow your business don't come with external pressure. So they get pushed back. Again and again.

In this episode, I break down why that happens and what actually needs to change if you want to consistently follow through without relying on last-minute urgency.

This isn't about becoming more disciplined. It's about understanding the perfectionist pattern that keeps you stuck - and shifting the way you approach your work so you can take action even when no one is watching.

Building a business is a big brave thing - especially as a perfectionist. So in this episode I'm interviewing PGSDer Laura Miller about how she has used the support of the Perfectionists Getting Shit Done community to create insane personal growth and results for herself during her 6 years (!!) as an active PGSDer.

We also discuss the value of PGSD as a lifetime access program and why you can get all of the community benefits of PGSD without having to actively post or be seen inside PGSD. Laura also shares her story of how PGSD helped to pick her back up after a big fail so she could go on to create wild success. And she gives her best advice for PGSDers on how to connect with the PGSD community and the different ways that can look.

PGSDer Megan Chambers is such a great example of everything I talked about in my 5-Part Personal Development Series. So I wanted to have her on the podcast to share her experience with you!

In this episode, Megan shares how shifting her perfectionist beliefs allowed her to create an influx of new clients without having to change her marketing strategy or working longer hours.

We talk about how Megan knew that perfectionism was stopping her business from growing and what that looked like for her (hello procrasti-learning). And we chat about Megan's experience inside Perfectionists Getting Shit Done (aka PGSD) and how the program supported her to get to the next level in her business while also working a full-time job.

This is Part 4 of my 5-Part podcast series for perfectionist entrepreneurs. It's all about why personal development is the secret to building your business and my simple personal development process that works for perfectionists who are building businesses.

I wouldn't have a successful business if I hadn't figured out how to make great business decisions even when I was scared of getting it wrong. I used to umm and ahh, procrasti-research, procrasti-learn and second guess myself. I wanted to get every decision right because I didn't want to embarrass myself, I didn't want to waste precious time and money and I didn't want to publicly put myself out there if I was only going to change my mind one week later.

In today's episode, I'm sharing the simple personal development work that my clients and I have done to make great business decisions even when you're scared you'll get it wrong. And the answer isn't just to make an 'imperfect' decision. That doesn't work for perfectionists! So instead, I'm sharing a simple and practical approach that does - as well as some personal stories that I know you'll be able to relate to.
