- Why black and white thinking makes so much sense to perfectionists
- Why you'd rather do no work than do less than a perfect day's work
- Where perfectionism stems from and how it's a coping mechanism for fear
-How perfectionism holds you back from your dreams and what it does to you emotionally
-The difference between perfectionism and high standards
-How to start overcoming it
And lots more, including a few personal stories and a Mario Kart analogy🏎
