Jasmine Chen

I’ve always found myself caught in the whirlwind of perfectionism and burnout, navigating that tricky balance between giving my all and risking it all for the sake of an ideal. It’s a sensitive topic that resonates deeply with many of us, isn’t it? I’ve experienced those late nights spent stressing over the smallest details, and the overwhelming pressure to deliver my best, often at the expense of my well-being. Exploring this delicate dance through my experiences has given me insight into the reality of perfectionism—that it can be both a driving force and a stumbling block. By sharing these insights, I hope to help others find a healthier path forward, where progress takes precedence over unattainable standards.

When I’m not delving into the complexities of our drive for perfection, you might find me experimenting in the kitchen, channeling my inner chef to whip up delicious plant-based recipes. It’s a delightful way to express my creativity and practice self-care at the same time. I’m also a huge fan of cozying up with a good book or getting lost in the latest binge-worthy series—there’s nothing quite like rooting for characters who, like us, face their own struggles. And let’s not forget my passion for travel! I absolutely love exploring new cultures and indulging in local cuisines whenever I get the chance. Through it all, each experience teaches me the beauty of imperfection and the joy of embracing life one moment at a time.
