Imperfection in Progress
Dawn Calvinisti
Whether you are busy getting chores done, taking a walk, or on the road, I’d like to invite you to come relax and be imperfect with me.
I'm your host, Dawn Calvinisti and my intention with the podcast is to create a community of imperfect women who are willing to admit it and ditch the mask in order to get unstuck and take action to reach their goals.
Maybe you’re still a people-pleaser, perfectionist or procrastinator or maybe you are recovering from the 3 p’s. Wherever you are in your journey you’ll find less stress and more joy here.
I’ll be interviewing women like you on their journey away from the 3 p’s and into a more fulfilled and purposeful life. We’ll learn how to stress less, lower the bar and truly be our authentic selves.
As a recovering people pleaser, perfectionist and procrastinator who now coaches other women in lowering the stress these roles cause and increase the joy in life I’m here to get answers from our guests and maybe offer some too.Let’s pursue progress no matter how imperfectly!

How Hypnotherapy Can Help You with Lynnsey Robinson
Imperfection in Progress
05/24/23 • 39 min
“Every human goes into hypnosis every day. You have to go into a state of trance to fall asleep, to wake up, to come out of sleep, to those times where you drive home and you can't remember doing it. Or if you get lost in a book or a movie and you get startled or you cry, there's a part of your mind that thinks it's actually happening. So that's a light state of trance.” - Lynnsey Robinson
Welcome to Imperfection In Progress, a podcast for ambitious women who are people pleasers, perfectionists, or procrastinators. Want to feel less stressed and more joy in your life? Then this is for you. I'm your host, Dawn Calvinisti.
On today’s episode I’m joined by Lynnsey Robinson, a Certified Hypnotherapist and Intuitive Coach. She has spent a decade helping people achieve their BIG personal and success goals, and move past what's been stopping them-- for good.
Lynnsey specializes in helping ambitious women all over the world to clear the subconscious limiting beliefs keeping them stuck, so they can embody their highest potential and manifest their biggest desires automatically.
Through her client work, hypnotherapy membership, and her podcast, "High Vibin' It", she empowers others to harness their ability to attract all the abundance and success that life has to offer.
This is such a fun conversation! We uncover what hypnotherapy really is and what it isn’t. How our subconscious and conscious work and how we can get into our subconscious to help change the beliefs that are holding us back.
Lynnsey is so much fun to talk to! She shares such great examples from her own life of how we can go from being afraid and stuck to living with joy and excitement.

Focusing on Wellbeing Through Connection with Kate Kripke
Imperfection in Progress
03/29/23 • 29 min
“I think what happens is that we walk around not feeling good inside of our own skin, and part of that is because we've forgotten what it looks like to connect with ourselves before giving to other people all the time. So we end up doing that from such a place of depletion.” - Kate Kripke
Welcome to Imperfection In Progress, a podcast for ambitious women who are people pleasers, perfectionists, or procrastinators. Want to feel less stressed and more joy in your life? Then this is for you. I'm your host, Dawn Calvinisti
On Today’s episode we are learning from Kate Kripke, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Perinatal Mental Health Counselor (PMH-C) who has worked with individuals and groups in periods of transition and change for more than 20 years.
As we discuss how culturally we have accepted so many stereotypes in our roles as women, we also discuss how we can shift into a new way of thinking about ourselves and what roles we choose to take on.
If you’ve ever felt depleted, overwhelmed, lonely, then you’ll find so much encouragement and wisdom in what Kate shares.
I know that community is a huge aspect of our wellbeing, especially our mental wellbeing, but Kate really clarifies what that looks like. I hope you enjoy her insights and find freedom in what she has to offer.

On today’s episode we are discussing how we set ourselves up for failure by having expectations that are too high.
This conversation with Cara Harvey, host of The Purpose Driven Mom podcast removes so many burdens we put on ourselves. You are going to love the practical tips she gives for building trust with yourself around your goals.
Cara is amazing at breaking down bigger tasks into manageable chunks and in ways that actually fit your life and schedule.

I know you’re going to feel encouraged to redefine what is “good enough” as you listen to this episode.
