My Crazy Jungle Mind Just Got Sanctioned
I have placed sanctions against myself.
Yes, you read that correctly. What sanctions? I am no longer allowed to purchase online training or nonfiction books.

I have spent so much money on training and books in the past couple of years, that I could rent an Italian villa for three weeks with the money I’ve spent. I’ve just been thinking about this lately. I keep buying these trainings and noticing how it actually stresses me out each time. It stresses me out because I know that I will neither have time to finish the training nor will I even START them! And yet, I continue to buy them.
I have been asking myself this lately. What is my problem? And it occurred to me this morning under the shower: I keep trying to consume more information and collect more expertise before allowing myself to just start creating content and helping others. I keep thinking I need to know more, I need to become MORE of an expert. Yes, I need to know EVERYTHING there is to know about everything before starting!
Hello, I’m Kerri, and I’m a perfectionist.
There. I said it. (Whew, that’s a relief.)
I have been unwittingly trying to be absolutely PERFECT before I put myself out there!
Do you know what the dumbest thing about this is? My entire business is based on coaching and mentoring overthinkers to get out of their heads so they can live a happier, more fulfilled, and take-charge life. (I’m giggling at the irony as I type.)
