EPISODE #170
Letting Go of Getting My Act Together | Barb Patterson
with Barbara Patterson
About This Episode
What if the constant drive to optimize, organize, and “get it right” is actually keeping us at a distance from life?
In this solo episode, Barb explores the subtle illusion behind getting our act together and how perfectionism and control can quietly delay action, presence, and aliveness.
Using everyday examples and the metaphor of the kayak versus the yacht, she invites us to loosen our grip on certainty, trust our capacity to learn, and step more fully into the imperfect, unfolding reality of our lives.
Thank you for listening and for being part of this journey.
