0:00.0	The issue with perfectionism is number one, you don't forgive yourself.
0:03.0	If you don't do it perfectly, they'll just continue to beat themselves up.
0:07.0	Our self-talk, our internal dialogue is so toxic.
0:11.0	Most of us would never allow another person to talk to us the way we talk to ourselves.
0:14.0	As long as you're moving in the right direction, even if you fall, it's okay, because it's in those falls that we learn the most. No one really knows why
0:22.2	people are as resilient as they are, whether you're born with it, whether you develop it.
0:26.2	But it's very different and it's individual. And I don't think you should be hard on yourself
0:30.5	wherever you're at. Welcome to the Melanie Avalon Biohacking Podcast, where we meet the world's
0:36.7	top experts to explore the secrets of health,

1:18.2	our personal stories, our trauma, our mindset. I was so excited when the Amens reached out to me
1:24.1	about bringing Tanna on for her new book. And it was truly a beautiful memoir,
1:28.7	inspiring, really made me think so much about my own personal life and my own personal experiences.
1:34.4	And I think you guys will be really, really encouraged by this episode. There will be a full
1:38.5	transcript of this episode in the show notes. That will be at Melanieavalon.com slash Tana Amen. That's T-A-N-A-A-M-E-N. I'm also super excited because we are
1:49.5	going to do a signed book giveaway on my Instagram. So just check up my Instagram for that.
1:54.8	And then there will be another giveaway as per usual in my Facebook group, I-F biohackers,
