Perfectionism, Procrastination & Avoidance

As a perfectionist you have an all or nothing attitude; you're either going to do it all or not at all, but when you do nothing the thoughts can creep in about your worth, which make you turn to coping mechanisms that don't actually help you cope at all.And then you get stuck in a perfectionism, procrastination and avoidance cycle.In this episode we look at how procrastination is anxiety, how numbing or distracting yourself is actually creating more overwhelm and some tools to help you challenge these cycles.Formerly The Maternal Wellbeing FoundationFollow Me on Instagram: @riaolivercoachingFind Out More: www.riaolivercoaching.com'Reset' Programme: www.riaolivercoaching/reset-perfectionist-supportBook a FREE 1-1 call: https://calendly.com/ria-oliver-coaching-and-therapy/45min
