About this audiobook
Do you have trouble going to bed at night when there's a mess in the kitchen? Do you think you would be happier if only you could lose weight, be a better parent, work smarter, reduce stress, exercise more, and make better decisions? You're not perfect. But guess what? You don't have to be. All of us struggle with high expectations from time to time. But for many women, the worries can become debilitating-and often, we don't even know we're letting unrealistic expectations color our thinking. The good news is, we have the power to break free from the perfectionist trap-and internationally renowned health psychologist, Dr. Alice Domar can show you how.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This was a great book to read to learn how to happy without being perfect.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I thought this book had very helpful and practical tips!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Great book! Full of advice and practical methods. Highly recommend!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book was a nice quick read full of helpful substance for any of who struggle with perfectionist tendencies. I was able to identify areas I have addressed adequately as well as areas in need of serious improvement. Trying to chip away at these exhausting tendencies can be overwhelming. Alice provides several strategies one can implement to help people make improvements. Most of all she guides us to change our mind states and ask “who are we trying to impress? .... and why? Great read!
Thank you Alice!
Liza Kanu - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book is so refreshing. I was able to relate.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5a 2 hour audio book worth listening to.
but honestly, i did skip some chapters because i cannot relate or not interesting to me like the parenting and things related to married couple, but i did enjoy listening to most parts related to being perfectionist at work and how to divert your thinking of everything needing to be perfect.
This is informative and educational. - Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Talks sense but nothing new. A good read though
