In The Circle

96. How Can I Make Peace with ‘Good Enough’ vs. Perfectionism?


Listen Later

In this week’s episode of In The Circle, we’re exploring the powerful topic of perfectionism. We’re joined by Kevin, who brings a thought-provoking question to the circle: How can I make peace with ‘good enough’ versus perfectionism?

Perfectionism, often rooted in disconnection and insecurity, can lead to a life of stress and unfulfilled expectations.

This episode examines the fine line between striving for our best and losing balance. How does perfectionism fuel procrastination? And how can we show up fully in life without constantly pressuring ourselves to do more or be better? These are vital questions that many of us face in recovery and life.

Join us as we unpack the role of perfectionism, its impact on our well-being, and how to find freedom from its grip. There’s so much to learn about letting go of unattainable standards and embracing the beauty of “good enough.”

Tommy Discusses:

  • When is ‘good enough’, good enough?
  • Does perfectionism lead to procrastination?
  • Breaking the perfectionism trance
  • Setting intentions for the best possible outcome
