The Perfectionism Trap: Why You Don’t Need to Start at 100%

In this first episode of a two-part series on perfectionism, Amy Chang, coach at Healthy Life, Health and Wellness Coaching, breaks down the hidden ways perfectionism derails our best intentions. Whether you're stuck in inaction because you can’t do it perfectly, or diving in at 110% only to burn out fast, Amy unpacks how perfectionism keeps us from making real, sustainable progress.   She introduces the powerful concept of “leveling up” your habits—just like a game—to gently build momentum, reduce shame, and keep growth fun and fulfilling. From workouts to nutrition, and even relationships, you'll learn how to celebrate progress at every stage rather than chasing unattainable perfection.   Start where you are. Level up with grace. And ditch the all-or-nothing mindset for good.   👉 Stay tuned for part two where Amy takes on perfectionism’s sneaky sidekick: complacency.  

Trying to get healthy and stay healthy is f-ing hard! Everybody struggles with some aspect of it, no matter what they look like or what they tell you. There is no magic formula - a healthy lifestyle is a choice we need to make daily. Join Amy as she supports, informs, and entertains you on your journey toward health.
