Today, Kelly Newsom discusses her struggle with perfectionism and overwhelm. She shares her realization that her "do it all" mentality is detrimental to her wellbeing and is a form of perfectionism, which is tied to her self-esteem and her fear of failure. Kelly introduces the concept of "satisficing", a decision-making process where one accepts a satisfactory rather than optimal outcome. She applies this concept to her commitments, finding ways to complete tasks without sacrificing her wellbeing.
