EP 653: Kamini Wood – How to Overcome Limiting Beliefs and Perfectionism
Where do our limiting beliefs stem from?
I see them as narratives that come from our families of origin or experiences we’ve had throughout our lives. Some common ones are “I’m not enough” “I’m not lovable”.
How can people overcome limiting beliefs, especially when it holds them back from dating?
Naming your limiting beliefs is the first step. Get curious with yourself. Recognize the stories you’re telling yourself. If you have fear, complete the thought loop. What’s your fear? What’s true? What’s the evidence I have today to support this belief?
Once you identify the truth, ask yourself what you want to do about it. What action will you take?
How does perfectionism sabotage our love lives, and how can people begin to overcome their need to be perfect?
Perfectionism can hold us back because we might expect our partner to be perfect. We create unspoken expectations. That leads to resentment. If we hold ourselves to a high standard, we can be held back. Perfectionists struggle when a relationship is not working, and they are afraid of failure, and afraid to leave a relationship for that reason. It can keep us from being honest with what you truly need.
How can our careers contribute to our self-sabotaging habits, and how does this show up in our romantic relationships?
If you’re a perfectionist, work is a place where you get a lot of meaning and enoughness. You might put more energy into work, which can leave you drained and unable to put energy into your love life. There’s certainty in your work life, but less certainty in your love life. How can you find balance? Ask yourself what about work makes you feel safe and good? If you have a fear of rejection and not being accepted in dating, ask yourself what’s the worst case scenario your mind is telling you? Then ask yourself what you will do.
What are your final words of advice for anyone who wants to go on their last first date?
Give yourself permission to be present for the process and allow it to be what it is. Give yourself grace. Pay attention to the stories you tell yourself. Be you and be present. Just focus on making a connection.
