The Pain of Perfectionism with Cass Seidler

I always thought perfectionism was a bit of a humble brag — a flaw that was actually a strength. Something that helped you get ahead.Then I read an article in The New Yorker, and everything changed. I realised perfectionism isn’t something to gloat about at all. It’s a debilitating way of being, with deep roots, that can quietly stop you from living, creating, and connecting.In this conversation, I sit down with Cass Seidler, psychologist and recovering perfectionist. Together, we unpack what perfectionism really is, how it shows up, the toll it takes on your life, relationships, and energy — and what the road to recovery can look like.--You can order your One Word Journal hereEmail me on [email protected] me on IG hereAnd sign up to my newsletter here!
