#166: Perfectionism and Nervous System Regulation (Pt.2 with María-Victoria Albina)

This one is for our fellow perfectionists. Those of us who were raised as girls and women, know how easy it is to fall into perfectionism, constantly equating our worth with how “perfect” we can appear to be. This is Part 2 of our conversation with Somatic Life Coach María-Victoria Albina who will help us break through these perfectionistic thinking and reclaim our authenticity.

You will learn...

- what happens in the nervous system of a perfectionist

- why women, eldest daughters especially, often exhibit signs of people-pleasing, codependency, and perfectionism and how it gets passed down through generations

- how perfectionism might be related to IBS and other digestion issues?!?!?!?

- tools to help you snap out of perfectionistic thinking

We hope this episode inspires you to choose PRESENCE ＞ PERFECTION.
