7. Perfectly Imperfect

During this episode, Jackie and Robin talk about perfectionism and how it can impact both parents and children, in terms of their mindset, reactions and goals. The conversation reflects on how aiming for ‘perfection’ can lead to feelings of failure, lower confidence, frustration, and distress, as well as differentiating perfectionism and elite performance. Listeners will be provided with strategies to support their children in setting realistic expectations and taking risks that lead to increased confidence and a ‘bounce back’ mentality.
