My, my job is to somehow make them curious enough or persuade them by hookah crew to get

more aware of themselves and where they came from and what they are into and what is already there

is just to bring it out. This is what compels me to compel them and I will do it by whatever means

you. Welcome to the Black Girl's Hill podcast. We talk about healing or intimacy disorders and

resolve trauma and building a healthy relationship with first ourselves and then others. Every episode

we will talk about advice you can apply today to break unhealthy patterns and grow in your

self-worth. I'm Shrinella Shea, love addition coach and trauma specialist. Let's begin.

Hello, hello and welcome to the latest episode of Black Girl's Hill. I am, as always, so happy to

share today's episode with you. Today we have a special guest. We have Dr. Marquetta Sims,

a perfectionism expert out of Atlanta, Georgia, who's going to be talking to us about how to

work through and heal our perfectionism. This is probably one of the most common issues that women

in our community struggle with, you know, probably people in general, but definitely women in our

community. And so Dr. Sims, it's such an amazing, an amazing job in breaking down the origins of it,

what it looks like in our life practically and giving us some tips and encouragement and support

of how to work through it. She also is an EMDR expert, which if you have been following this

podcast for a while, you know I'm a big fan of. And so she talks about what EMDR therapy is.

And if it sounds helpful to you, then hopefully that'll be your encouragement to go and

find a therapist in your area that specializes in it. But in editing this episode, there were so

many parts that I just wanted to pause and run around and shout because she just was on a roll.

So I hope that you enjoy this episode. I hope that you find it helpful. I hope that if you have

been ongoing in your work in perfectionism, this just helps reinforce the work you've already

done or maybe supplement and fill in some gaps in areas that would be good for you to look at.
