How to Overcome Perfectionism

The Root and Rise Podcast | Personal Growth, Breaking Cycles, & Healing Trauma

You can't talk about how to overcome perfectionism without first discussing what perfectionism is, what it looks like, and why we suffer from it.
Don't let perfectionism hold you back or bring you down. You deserve to believe you are good enough. And to accept that good enough really IS good enough. To be human is to be flawed - we are all flawed! But that doesn't define who we are. And it doesn't hold as much weight as you might be allowing it to.
