EP. 28 - Four Ways You're Performing Your Life - Part Three: Perfecting

Today's episode is all about perfectionism! It's the third way we perform in our lives - and definitely the one I hear the most about. You know the feeling of perfectionism. It's those unrealistically high standards and expectations that you feel like you MUST reach – and the inevitable stress, anxiety, shame, and worry that shows up when you don't. That's when the inner critic swoops in, berating you with a barrage of commentary: You should have worked harder. Done more. Why did you do THAT? Haven't you learned anything?!? You should know better by now. Are you stupid?Yep. It's all really fun. And almost everyone I work with experiences perfecting.
