How to Let Go of Perfection to Get Ahead in Your Career

The other day I was on a video call with a client, and I asked her why she chose to work with me as oppose to another coach. She thought for a minute and then said, “Well, I think it’s because you don’t seem that polished.” As soon as the words left her mouth, her…
