About this Episode:

Perfectionism and the "shoulds" can really cramp our happiness because they prevent  us from doing things simply for the sake of enjoyment. In this episode guest Sara Bates shares how she's learned to approach life from an energy of curiosity and freedom instead.

What You'll Learn: 

  • How to let go of the "shoulds" and perfectionism and instead approach life from a place of non-judgmental curiosity (without an agenda or need for validation)
  • To do what you love without judgment.
  • Why you must ignore the "inner voice of the oppressor"
  • The magic of starting your morning routine at night
  • And much more
