“I clearly remember my mother arguing with my fourth grade teacher because I had gotten a B+.”

If you’ve ever identified yourself as a perfectionist, whether you consider it a point of pride or something you want to change… you’re going to want to check out this episode.
I’ll be straight up with you right now — I am a recovering perfectionist.
I grew up with a family that expected me to get straight As (and preferably A+s) throughout my entire time in school.
Because I was so steeped in this environment of perfectionism, it followed me even into my career in corporate law. Being a perfectionist in corporate law wasn’t always the worst thing, but it can be very easy to let a focus on perfection derail your productivity or get in the way of living your best life… especially as a creative person.
There are two very different mindsets that people subscribe to when it comes to chasing perfection. One mindset allows perfectionism to be a constructive source of inspiration, but the other turns perfectionism into a destructive force.
It’s time for us to reframe how we look at perfectionism — and to figure out exactly how our perfectionism makes us FEEL. Your framework for perfectionism will have a big impact on how you feel about yourself and your work, so let’s get to work on healing your mindset!
It all starts right now!
