Lit AF Relationships

100. Perfectionism on the road to secure attachment


Listen Later

In today’s episode, I share how perfectionism shows up on the road to secure attachment. I recently caught myself being a super perfectionist about my own attachment style in preparation for the birth of my baby. My fearful-avoidant leaning dismissive avoidant tendencies had me hooked on secure. I wanted to have my shit figured out so I wasn’t doing it in front of the baby. But guess what, NO ONE IS PERFECT. Not even securely attached people. 

I share a really important tool that helps me have so much forgiveness, compassion, and grace for when I’m experiencing these moments.


PS Lit AF is going on maternity leave until 2023. We’ll be sharing new episodes soon. Until then enjoy our previous episodes to help you heal.
