Manage episode 410561322 series 3486337
Did you know that studies show that in the past few decades there has been a 30% increase in people exhibiting perfectionist traits?
I never considered myself a perfectionist but I am starting to see areas of my life where I have a perfectionist mindset and how paralyzing it has been for me.
And I believe that perfectionism is a form of chronic stress that is rooted in a belief of "not enough"
In this episode:
- What exactly is perfectionism?
- Why "healthy perfectionism" is a myth
- Perfectionism as way of thinking of yourself vs. a set of behaviors
- How perfectionism has held me back in being seen and heard
