Episode 58: Perfectionism isn't Perfect


Listen Later

Perfectionism is one of those interesting character traits that many aspire too, but it can often lead to drastically negative behaviour.   Research now shows us that perfectionism is an acquired trait, we’re certainly not born with it.  How perfect were your idle doodles as a 4 year old?

In this episode, Mark Smith & Helen Frewin wrestle with this curious phenomenon offering insights and practical tips to recognising the value - and detriment - to perfectionism.
