Do You Have Unrelenting Standards? 'ask dorothy' The WISDOM podcast  Season 5  Episode 137 ~  Unrelenting standards are an early maladaptive schema—a deeply ingrained belief system—characterized by the relentless pursuit of excessively high, perfectionistic standards to avoid criticism. This often results in chronic stress, burnout, and hypercriticalness toward oneself and others, prioritizing performance over pleasure, health, and relationships.   In this Episode: We'll discuss the key characteristics and behaviors associated with having unrelenting standards. You'll understand the orgins and impact of this maladaptive schema on your life. I'll share helpful, concrete tools for getting starting ~ in reprogramming yourself with kindness, self-compassion and through a lens of evidence-based CBT strategies for rewriting your core schema. ~  Are you interested in learning if you hold maladaptive schemas?
