In this week’s episode, we talk about how perfectionism can get in the way of real self care. This came about because I was trying to decide if I should take a year long maternity leave or not.

In this episode we discuss:

• What perfectionism is and how (in my case) it can be disguised as fear
• Identifying real or imagined barriers
• Considering supports that can help and possibly ease transition
• List pros and cons of each both

If it’s hard for you to move forward or make a decision that you know you would benefit from due to fear, this episode will give you a strategy to help you move forward. The strategy is applied to my personal situation, but you can definitely use and apply it to yourself.
