Science of Perfectionism
In this episode, we will talk about the concept and Science of Perfectionism.
While there is scientific consensus that perfectionism leads to negative consequences, there has been a longstanding debate within perfectionism research if there are any positive aspects of perfectionism. At what point does healthy striving for perfection turn unhealthy?
Come along this week's quest to understand and untangle what perfectionism is, how, when, and why it is problematic.
Enjoy!
