I've always loved to work toward something and produce my best work possible. As I went through the design notes for my book, the process required attention to detail. I also was in the thick of motherhood, fashion show planning and finalizing the testimonials for the book. For the first time in my life, I embraced the saying that done is better than perfect. If you have a lot on your plate, I hope you can make peace with letting go a little bit, too.
