High-achieving individuals tend to struggle with perfectionism — with striving to achieve an ideal outcome in everything all the time. And what’s wrong with that? Shouldn’t perfection be the standard we aim for?
Though perfection feels like a reasonable and right goal, it simply doesn’t match what we find in reality. At best, perfection is a fantasy. At worst, it’s a delusion. And in either case, when we fail to reach that supreme standard, the result is shame and frustration.
In this podcast, I want to talk about the connection between perfectionism and shame, how it affects high-achievers in particular, and what you can do to free yourself from the cycle.
