We Are Standing on the Edge

EP 059 | The Tyranny of Perfectionism


Listen Later

The tyranny of perfectionism is that it overtakes your authenticity and drowns out your uniqueness. It can become a debilitating way that we cause violence and self-harm to ourselves. Perfectionism is touted as this wonderful trait, but it's truly a path to anxiety, not enoughness, and pain. And while perfectionism can often inspire hard work and excellence, it's time to ask yourself, "At what cost?" This episode digs into how perfectionism can be a tool of self-criticism and paralysis that creates a state of constant disappointment. Because by definition, perfection is not attainable or sustainable. Learn how to honor your perfectionism and make the shift to a more gentle, soft, and allowing way of being instead.
