The curse of Perfectionism

You will always have deadlines.

You will always have bills to pay and things to buy.

You will always have things to do and people to see.

Work will always be busy and uni will always have assignments to complete.

These shouldn’t be the reasons why you say no. These don’t have to hold you back in the pursuit of your goals.

When we often meet ladies for the first time, statements similar to the above are not uncommon.

We see women waiting for the “right time”. We hear from women waiting until something in their life changes for them to put themselves first. We see women waiting for the PERFECT TIME.

Waiting for the “perfect time for them” to put themselves first.

Culturally we can hear about perfectionism as a positive. We may think that it can help us to work hard and produce results to a high standard. We may think that it helps to fuel our actions to be the best we can be.

The reality is that our obsession with striving for flawless, perfect results can and does hold us back.

The curse of Perfectionism may appear in your life:

You set unrealistic expectations on yourself.
You have to go all in, in order to want to start. You have trouble moving onto a new task, project or goal before finishing off the last.
You may often avoid projects or goals where you can see you might not be the best.

Life is never going to have all areas of our lives tidy, organised or stress free.

Life is not perfect.

We are not perfect.

When we start to work with our ladies to bust through these barriers, the results that they have been searching for often come more easily than they think.

They break through strength plateaus.
They begin to release weight that has been troubling them for years.
They light up PB after PB and actually have a good time training.

We need to stop searching for the “perfect” or the “right” time.
It will never come and you will spend all of your time searching.
Now is the right time.
Now is your time.
To be everything you’ve wanted to be.
To stop being a spectator to your own life.
To take action!

"I asked BBB coaches lots of questions and learnt a lot from them and from other BBB: I learnt how to love and appreciate myself, my body and be grateful about everything that I have in my life. I no longer wait until Sunday to eat that ‘cheat meal’ and feel guilty about it. I learnt how to enjoy every present moment and every single experience that happens in my life. I learnt how to stay calm, manage my stress, build up better relationship with my love ones."

Before I started with BBB, I had back pain, and felt sluggish and unhappy. BBB has helped me with a holistic approach improving all areas of my life. The coaches worked with me to set healthy habits to achieve steady improvements in my physical strength, nutrition and mindset. After a year together I am fitter, happier, healthier and more confident. Now I don't set goals just to live pain-free but to achieve things that I previously thought were out of my reach. Joining was one of the best decisions I have made in my life!

Rochene has supported me far beyond most coaches would. She supports, empowers, loves and encourages her clients in an unparalleled manner. Not only has she shown me how to move better, strengthen my mind and help reduce my anxiety and depression she has shown me how to be a better coach.

Ro is the greatest trainer I have ever had. She comes up with the most interesting workouts, and I am always excited to see what she has planned when I go to the gym. She really cares about her clients and is a wonderful motivator.

Abby Sandercock
I wish I'd looked into strength training years ago! I've done programs before that weren't for me - I'd had short-term results but then I bounced back after I found them unsustainable.

Rachael Bettiens
I have been training with Rochene for the last 6 months. In that time I have lost almost 20 kgs. Rochene has guided me to a healthy lifestyle and is arming me with the tools necessary to maintain this way of life.

"I came to Rochene with a couple of weight loss goals in mind but her training is now an essential part of my lifestyle."

Stefanie Clinton
Knowing I had a great support team, not only in the other girls I trained with, but with Rochene as well, helped me get through the hard times, celebrated the achievements and allowed me to have fun along the way.

Erin Cartwright
With Rochene by my side I've lost 28kgs to date... I know for a fact that she is the best trainer for me!

Kristy-Lee Walker
Rochene's professionalism, extensive knowledge and enthusiastic commitment to her work and, ultimately her clients, provides the perfect scenario for success!

Rochene is incredibly motivated and genuinely cares about you and your progress. Very fortunate to have stumbled into her Private Training sessions.
