This week I hope to help us all see how perfectionism might be driving our desire to be better and to embrace all the many glorious ways we’re imperfect. Today I’m talking to someone who can help us do just that clinical psychologist and meditation teacher Tara Cousineau. Tara is the author of The Kindness Cure, creator of the course Overcome Perfectionism Through Self-Compassion for the meditation app Insight Timer, and a faculty member at the Harvard Medical School’s Center for Mindfulness. And Tara will help us see how self-compassion can help unwind the inner algorithms that lead to perfectionism.Got a comment or a question? I'm all ears! Learn more about your ad choices.

Whether your creative work is writing, painting, making music, parenting, or simply living,&nbsp;Finding the Throughline can help you&nbsp;get—and stay—inspired. Invigorated, even.&nbsp;
For detailed show notes on each interview, visit&nbsp;katehanley.substack.com. And if you’d like to hear these interviews in one ad-free episode (as opposed to broken up into three shorter episodes with a few ads sprinkled in to keep the lights on), become a paid subscriber once you’re there.
