Introducing CAMILA MENDES: "Perfectionism Was Ruining My Life" from On Purpose with Jay Shetty.Follow the show: On Purpose with Jay ShettyActress and producer Camila Mendes joins Jay for an honest conversation about the hidden cost of perfectionism, the pressure behind success, and what it took to finally choose herself. Camila opens up about the breaking point that forced her to confront old wounds, heal her relationship with food, reconnect with her Brazilian identity, and redefine what spirituality, self-worth, and love really mean.Together, they explore why chasing perfection often leaves us feeling empty, how slowing down can become the greatest act of self-respect, and why true confidence isn't about having everything figured out, but about accepting yourself exactly as you are.With Love and Gratitude,Jay ShettyA State Farm agent can help you choose the coverage you need.
