Workshop: Breaking the Perfectionism Trap: Reclaiming Your Time and Energy

Perfectionism and toxic productivity often go hand in hand, driving us to do more, be more, and achieve more—at the cost of our well-being. In this interactive workshop, we’ll explore how perfectionist tendencies fuel burnout, procrastination, and self-doubt. Through guided reflection, practical exercises, and evidence-based strategies, you’ll learn how to challenge perfectionist thinking, set sustainable goals, and cultivate a healthier, more compassionate relationship with productivity. Walk away with actionable tools to break free from the cycle of ‘never enough’ and embrace a more fulfilling, balanced approach to life and work.
LEAP Connect leadership workshops are free, accessible to the public, and are intended to bring a safe space to the community. Participants can walk away from the sessions with the tools and resources necessary to increase their leadership skills and inspire change.
