#464: Overcoming Perfectionism

from Another Mother Runner

Sarah and Tish Hamilton delve into perfectionism—what it is, what it does to us, how to overcome it—with Kathryn Ely, a licensed counselor and host of the Imperfect Thriving podcast. A self-professed “anxious perfectionist,” Kathryn lays out: -traits and behaviors of perfectionism; -why perfectionism can trip you up—in running and everyday life; -how (and why!) to give yourself permission to be a beginner; -the power (both positive and negative) of self-talk; and -what type of therapy can work best for overcoming perfectionism. In the liberal arts-y intro, Sarah and Tish talk poetry, wildflowers, and sunrises (!!); Kathryn makes a perfectly timed entrance at 10:43.
