Perfectionism Is a Trauma Response, Not a Personality Trait

If your brain believes:

→ "I can't finish this until it's perfect…"

→ "I can't rest until it's all done…"

→ "If I get it wrong, everything collapses…"

That's not high standards.

That’s **survival mode disguised as self-improvement**.

Perfectionism is often what we learned when:

- Praise was conditional

- Mistakes got punished

- Being seen as capable was the only way to feel safe

But here's the truth:

**The version of you who only feels safe by being flawless is exhausted.**

Inside CORE, we built a ritual to release the nervous system pressure to be perfect — and to actually *finish things* without shame.

You don’t need to do it right to move forward.

You just need to do it.

Rebuild your identity. Regulate your nervous system. Become who you were meant to be—without the mask, the burnout, or the old survival self.

Bring people together around your passion and get paid.
