I had the honor of talking with Joel Pimentel about his 50-pound weight-loss journey and his struggle with perfectionism. Many blushers suffer from perfectionism (I know I sure did). Although he's not a blusher, his struggles and mental battles are very similar to those who struggle with erythrophobia. Joel was able to move through his insecurities and create amazing content, which later led to a video that now has over 300k views and over 5k subscribers to his Youtube channel in just a few short months. Joel didn't wait until he felt ready, he just moved into action. I hope you find some encouragement from his incredible story and how he was able to lift himself from the pit of perfectionism and into living the life he desired. Be sure to check out his youtube channel  here: https://www.youtube.com/@joel.pimentelAnd IG here: https://www.instagram.com/joel.apf/ MY NEW BOOK, LEAN IN HAS BEEN RELEASED!!
