263. Perfectionist Tendencies and How to Overcome Them with Dr. Menije


Listen Later

Today on the podcast, we are happy to be hosting Dr. Menije, licensed Psychologist and founder of Embracing You Therapy which specializes in perfectionism, OCD, addiction, and anxiety. Dr. Menije is passionate about turning judgement into compassion, and pain into purpose. She loves helping people explore behavior changes to support their new way of thinking and utilize action goals. 

This episode will be a deep dive into perfectionism; the addiction to it, why it can create anxiety, and more. With the holidays approaching, we all can fall victim to the feeling of needing to be doing it ALL or MORE. This episode is a great listen for someone who is a perfectionist themselves and wants to learn better strategies to manage their tendencies. On the flip side, this episode also takes a look into relationships where your partner might be the perfectionist, and ways that you can work together to help them process and better cope with their perfectionist ways. Whether you deal with perfectionism, or you love someone who has perfectionistic tendencies, we hope from today’s interview that you learn some practical tools and methods to apply to your everyday stressors or you learn how to support someone you love!
