#52 Stop Polishing Your Pain: Perfectionism Is a Trauma Response

Welcome to The Art of Badassery’s Mindfucks With Mahara—where we don’t do surface-level healing or sugar-coated truths.

I’m Mahara Wayman, and if you’re ready to ditch the curated perfection and reclaim your raw, real power—you’re in the right place.

Today’s episode?
“Stop Polishing Your Pain: Perfectionism Is a Trauma Response.”
Yeah… we’re going there.

Perfectionism isn’t a flex—it’s a trauma response wrapped in gold foil. It’s your Inner Critic on overdrive, your Shadow Queen in disguise, and your Divine Guide being silenced.

This episode is your call to unravel the BS, get messy, and remember: your worth was never in your polish—it’s in your presence.

Let’s get raw, real, and radically free.

If this episode lit a fire in your soul (or lovingly smacked you with truth), take a sec to leave a rating and a badass little testimonial. Your words help this message reach more women ready to rise. I see you. I thank you. I so appreciate you. 👑 😜💃🏽👑
