Ep 28: Releasing Perfectionism and Reclaiming Self-Worth
About this episode
Diana Ordonez and Carolina Sizemore discuss overcoming perfectionism and reconnecting with self-worth.
In this heart-opening conversation, Diana is joined once again by transformational life coach and writer Carolina Sizemore to explore the inner work required to move beyond perfectionism and reconnect with self-worth. Together, they unpack the hidden impact of childhood expectations, nervous system dysregulation, and self-sabotage—and how high-achieving women can begin to release the pressure to prove themselves. If you've ever struggled to feel proud of yourself unless you're performing or achieving, this episode is a loving invitation to rewrite the story. 🔥 What You’ll Learn in This Episode: * Why perfectionism often stems from childhood survival patterns * How high performers abandon themselves in pursuit of external validation * What it means to speak to yourself with compassion instead of criticism * How nervous system regulation affects your ability to receive love, rest, and joy * Tools to help you soften, slow down, and finally feel safe being yourself 🧠 Key Insight: "It’s not about doing more—it’s about seeing yourself differently." 🌍 Connect with Carolina Sizemore: 📲 Instagram: @carolina.sizemore 🌐 Website: www.carolinasizemore.com 💼 LinkedIn: Carolina Lindholm…
