  • Kelly Johnson - Recovering Perfectionist

    This episode is a perfect example of how a strength, when overused, can sabotage our health, our wellness, and ultimately how we show up both personally and professionally. I thoroughly enjoyed Kelly’s story of how she discovered the steps she needs to take to continue her success in a healthy way and how she is now passing that knowledge to her kids and her clients.
