Mitch Wallis on How to Do Hard Things, Overcome Perfectionism and Wear Your Heart on Your Sleeve

This week I welcome the wonderful Mitch Wallis to the pod. Mitch is a mental health expert, speaker, founder of Heart on My Sleeve and Co-Founder of Calm Water. While living a seemingly perfect life, hitting all the usual success markers, being the youngest ever intern at Microsoft and paving a successful career, Mitch was masking deep inner turmoil. An outer appearance of a perfectionist and high achiever was masking deep insecurities that led Mitch down a path of self discovery to find a desire to express his internal values and ultimately dedicating his life to helping others find emotional wellbeing. In this chat, Mitch and I talk about: The root insecurities of being a perfectionist and high achiever Wearing a mask and discovering who you truly are External validation vs intrinsic values How external wins fuel the ego and identity How to accept yourself and where you’re at Why connection is so important The value of being seen and heard Why do we avoid pain? How facing your pain helps you grow A powerful journalling exercise for self reflection Plus so much more Make sure you tell us what you loved and learnt from this episode by leaving a rating and review over at Apple Podcasts.
