The Soft Life with Saddie Baddies

Unlearning Perfectionism: Embracing Imperfection


Listen Later

Perfectionism can be a double-edged sword. On one hand, it can drive us to achieve great things and set high standards for ourselves. On the other hand, it can also lead to burnout, self-doubt, and a constant feeling of never being good enough. In this episode, we’ll dive deep into the roots of perfectionism, how it manifests in different areas of our lives, and the ways in which it can hold us back.

In this episode, we’ll explore:

  1. The benefits of embracing imperfection, such as increased creativity, resilience, and self-compassion.
  • Practical strategies for unlearning perfectionism, such as reframing negative self-talk, setting realistic goals, and practicing self-care.
  • Tips for the recovering perfectionist and how embracing imperfection can lead you to personal freedom.
  • ANNOUNCEMENTS & EPISODE LINKS
