I got to talk with the women of Emerge Surf Therapy and Wilder Wellness, Kristin Mathes and Kristen Ales, about so many different aspects and perspectives on perfectionism!

Perfectionism is something we have all experienced as human beings on this planet. On this episode, Kristin, Kristen, and I (three Kristi/ens!) discuss the different ways perfectionism has shown up in our lives and how we've battled, challenged, and found acceptance for it.

Perfectionism is just fear in fancy shoes and a mink coat." -Elizabeth Gilbert
