Thankfully, we are not approached by any deer in Bushy Park while Lucy B. and I speak about the pins and needles of discomfort when you decide not to strive for perfection or to people-please. From becoming more self-aware, managing expectations, addressing the link between identity and achievement, to communicating issues in any kind of relationship, this is the second constructive conversation of the series.
