It clearly help you visualize how a perfectionism mind set affect your self, your family and your work place. My favorite section of the book where on the chapters that focuses on strategies that an implement in order to develop a growth mindset. Among my favorite strategies was CALM, the ideas of implementing activities such as Yoga or Tai Chi, and breath work to help me achieve my goal.

helped me stop chasing impossible standards

I didn’t think I struggled with perfectionism until I kept seeing myself in every example. Listening to this made me rethink how I manage my time and relationships. I’ve started giving myself permission to be “good enough” instead of perfect, and honestly, it’s been such a relief. The tips are super doable and feel like they fit real life, not just theory.

Goodbye Pressure, Hello Peace

This audiobook came to me right when I needed it most. I’ve always pushed myself to meet impossible standards, and it was draining the joy from everything. Listening to this felt like a deep breath—I finally understood where my perfectionism came from and how to start letting it go. The exercises are simple but powerful, and the tone is warm and encouraging. I’m not “fixed,” but I feel free for the first time in years. Highly recommend.

Letting Go Finally Made Sense

This audiobook made the notion of change feel gentle and real. What struck me the most was how it dismantled pressure to be perfect in such an authentic way. It was not a matter of fixing everything at once but being able to breathe and accept progress. I loved how each portion felt like a tiny step forward especially the focus on self compassion. It assisted in changing the way I speak to myself on a daily basis. If you are sick of feeling like nothing will ever be good enough this provides a healthier means of progressing.

Life-Changing Shift from Perfect to Progress

As a lifelong perfectionist, this book was a wake-up call. I didn’t realize how much my "high standards" were actually anxiety in disguise—until the chapter on self-talk flipped a switch. The practical steps, like the CALM method and embracing "good enough," helped me ease up at work and even in parenting. The section on failure as feedback? Game-changer. Now I’m quicker to pivot instead of panic. If you’re tired of your own impossible expectations, this is worth every minute.
